Understanding — deep, God-rooted comprehension — is a perpetually renewing source of life for those who possess it. It does not run dry. But a fool's attempt to instruct only multiplies folly; they cannot give what they do not have. This is a sobering warning about who we allow to shape us.
Memory phrase: Understanding gives real life.
Talk about it: Why is it important to learn from wise people and not from foolish ones?
Prayer: God, give me understanding that never runs dry.
