Dad's Ramblings -- The Wise Receive Instruction

"Do not correct a scoffer, lest he hate you; rebuke a wise man and he will love you. Give instruction to a wise man and he will be wiser still...."
 
                              Proverbs 9:8-9a
 
One of the marks that distinguishes a wise man from a fool is that the wise man can receive reproof and correction. Boy, have I got a long way to go!!! The wise love God's Word, because it is profitable for correction, reproof, and instruction in righteousness (II Tim. 3:16).
 
Today's Thought: A wise man will receive rebuke without resentment.
 
Have a wise day. Love you.
