Psalms 111:10
βThe fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom. All those who do his work have a good understanding. His praise endures forever!β
What does Psalms 111:10 mean?
The deepest wisdom doesn't start with intelligence or education, but with reverence for God, a humble recognition that he's greater than we are. When we approach life with that kind of awe and respect for God's character, it changes how we see everything else, helping us make choices and understand situations with real clarity. Those who actually live out what God asks of them discover this wisdom firsthand, finding that obedience brings genuine insight into how life works best. And the beautiful promise here is that this kind of wisdom, rooted in honoring God, never fades or becomes outdated, but echoes through all of time.
