18 and 19 affirm that wisdom and godly living are greater in value than all worldly wealth. As we read this description of Christ in Proverbs, we can see Him as the creator of the universe. To know Him and to have Him is true wisdom. Without having God's Son as personal Saviour, all other possessions are as nothing. To gain the world is but loss without Christ.
Earthly possessions can never satisfy the longing for peace and security.
That longing can only be satisfied by God. In chapter 9 wisdom's third call is to life. No man can serve two masters, and no man can live without a master. Html conversion done by Dr. Paul Prabhakar Tumpati .
