Proverbs begins by explaining that wisdom provides instruction for living a disciplined, righteous, and discerning life, with the fear of the Lord as its foundation. A father warns his son against being enticed by sinful people and following them down a path that ultimately destroys those who walk it. Wisdom then cries publicly to everyone, warning that continually rejecting correction eventually brings painful consequences.
Wisdom begins when we take God seriously enough to let Him correct the direction of our lives. The time to listen to God is before foolish choices produce consequences, not merely after we begin experiencing them.
