End of wisdom, or just the beginning!

we finish Prov. Ch30 by Agur summarizes the themes of wisdom and folly, greed and gluttony, and adultry and hypocrisy. See v 8, "Give me just enough to satisfy my needs", doesn't say desires! Also, check out vv25-28. Think about that before stepping! Prov Ch 31 by King Lemuel discuss a virtuous wife. We kid about this in certain circles but the reality is that it is our job as men and husbands to set our wives up for this success. V28b is key "Her husband praises her". How often do we as husbands do this for our wives? Of all the qualities described, can any be said of us men? Wives generally want a partner, not a boss. Make sure to re-read Proverbs often. There is life giving guidance. It is really the one-fits all tool!
