Sorry this is so late today! Between going to the apple orchard and having some new friends over for dinner, the day got away from me. So here we go...
1. I love what the footnote in the NIV says about verse 9 "The wiser a person is, the more he appreciates words of wisdom." When you were younger you hated listening to your parents or people older then you, who tried to give you advice. You thought you knew more than them, or that they had no clue what they were talking about. The older you get, the more you long for wisdom, you long for people to maybe not give you advice, rather share their ideas and thoughts with you.
2. Verse 17..."I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me" Do you put as much into your relationship with God as he puts into you? Think about it...
3. Verse 35/36..."For whoever finds me (wisdom) finds life and receives favor from the Lord. But whoever fails to find me harms himself; all who hate me love death" Why would you want to bring harm upon yourself?
What do you think?
See you tomorrow, hopefully at the normal time :)

The words tha tstood out to me most (from The Message) are:
"don't squander your precious life"
We need to make the most of what we have been given and follow the righteous path.
