Proverbs / Wisdom for Life – Week 1 – The Pursuit of Happiness

Proverbs 3:5-8; 13

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
    and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,

Be not wise in your own eyes;

It will be healing to your flesh[a]
    and refreshment[b] to your bones.

Blessed Is the One Who Finds Wisdom
