Choose Instruction over Gold

Proverbs 8:10-11, “Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold. For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.”

Market values fluctuate, but wisdom outprices every commodity. Money can buy options, but it cannot guarantee right choices. Instruction yields decisions that keep marriages intact, reputations clean, and souls alive. That return compounds into eternity.
