Proverbs 3:21-22 ” My son, preserve sound judgment and discernment, do not let them out of your sight; they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck.”

Many places throughout Proverbs we are admonished to follow the way of wisdom. Proverbs 4:20-22 tells us to pay attention to wisdom…keeping it always before us. For if we hold on to Godly wisdom and understanding, it can only bring life, honor, and guidance in our life. Or as it says, “an ornament to grace your neck,” which is a metaphor for beauty and protection…symbolizing the benefits of wisdom… which are the honorable character traits of dignity, trustworthiness, and esteem. (Proverbs 1:8-9) Therefore, if we follow the way of wisdom, it will shape our actions and character.
