“There is gold and a multitude of rubies, but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.” (NKJV) Proverbs 20:15
My father told my husband that he worried about me. He told my dear hubby that I did not speak until I was two. “But she has not stopped talking since.”
I have released my share of words into the world, some of them even worth remembering. The more I study and the more I grow, the more I recognize how valuable the words that I release are to my own life and to the life of those that I encounter.
Money is fleeting. Words have staying power. Words of knowledge can build a foundation of hope that will grow lives to extraordinary places.
Begin to develop lips of knowledge by planting seeds of wisdom in your heart and mind. The value of those words will outweigh even gold or rubies.
