Proverbs 13:18 ” He who ignores discipline comes to poverty and shame, but whoever heeds correction is honored.”

This proverb is the contrast between wisdom and folly that is in our hands every day. D0 we reject wise counsel and instead listen to the siren song of fools, (Ecclesiastes 7:5) or do we accept correction from someone much wiser than us and consequently grow wiser for it? (Proverbs 12:1) God-given wisdom accepts instruction, is self-disciplined, and loves knowledge…and because of it will be honored before men.
