📜 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Proverbs 4:2-9
for I give you good precepts;
do not forsake my teaching.
3 When I was a son with my father,
tender, the only one in the sight of my mother,
4 he taught me and said to me,
“Let your heart hold fast my words;
keep my commandments, and live.
5 Get wisdom; get insight;
do not forget, and do not turn away from the words of my mouth.
6 Do not forsake her, and she will keep you;
love her, and she will guard you.
7 The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom,
and whatever you get, get insight.
8 Prize her highly, and she will exalt you;
she will honor you if you embrace her.
9 She will place on your head a graceful garland;
she will bestow on you a beautiful crown.”

| 0:00.0 | It is time once again for the morning mindset edition of the Live Build Change Podcast. |
| 0:08.0 | Welcome. I'm glad you are taking the time to set your thinking in a certain direction for the day. |
| 0:14.6 | You're not being random about your life. |
| 0:16.5 | You're not just floating and being lazy. |
| 0:19.0 | You're being intentional. |
| 0:20.4 | Way to go. |
| 0:21.3 | That's what we have to do as followers of Jesus Christ. We have to take |
| 0:25.6 | control of this thing we call our mind and make sure that it is our servant, the |
| 0:30.5 | servant of Christ every day in the way that we live, the way that we think. |
| 0:35.0 | Today I want to start a new kind of a little series talking about the Proverbs. |
| 0:42.0 | You know I know many of us love the Proverbs. It's an easy place to go to |
| 0:47.8 | grab a quick bite of wisdom for the day that can help us think rightly about certain situations, help us know wisdom to |
| 0:56.2 | apply to our lives to the situations and circumstances that we face. And I |
| 1:01.4 | thought it would be good to start out talking about the purpose in nature of a proverb. |
| 1:07.0 | There were a few episodes a while back where I talked about this saying you can't teach an old dog new tricks. |
| 1:17.1 | Now that's a cliche and I actually made a case against that cliche if you want to go back and listen to those, |
| 1:24.0 | I'm not exactly sure what episodes those are, |
| 1:26.0 | but you can go back and find those. |
| 1:28.0 | But the point I'm making today is that that is an example of a proverb. It is a wise saying that |
| 1:38.6 | does have some truth to it. In fact, some very broad truth to it. That's generally what a |
| 1:45.0 | proverb is. It's a truthful statement that applies in most cases. But that also |
