Prayer: O God of wisdom we thank you for being with us from the beginning. We trust that you will be with as for all time. Help us be wise in your words and actions. Let us be a delight to you as you are a delight to us. AMEN
Reading: Proverbs 8: 1-4, 22-31 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: As I read the text for today, I had to reread them several times before I got more of an understanding of what they were about. I still don’t totally have a grasp on them, but what I do have I really like. I like how wisdom is female, and that wisdom is for all. It is interesting to me that wisdom was created. I never really thought about that before. I like how wisdom was created by God in the beginning and that wisdom is in everything. I also really liked how God delights in wisdom. May we be wise in our actions and words so that God can delight in us. --Charlene Rineer
