I’m going to date myself when I remember the old TV series, “Father Knows Best”, which ran from 1954 to 1960. But there’s a whole lot of truth in that title. As humans our quest for knowledge and understanding is insatiable. We want to know what’s going to happen right now…which is hard, especially when we have no control over the situation. So first, we must acknowledge God’s majesty, holiness, and authority…and that it’s His timing, not ours that will win out. Then as we ponder this Proverb, we will realize that it’s our relationship with God that is the foundational basis for obtaining true Godly wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. For when we are firmly rooted in Christ, our heart grows wiser every time we choose to follow Him, and not our own intellect. (Proverbs 3:5) That’s why true transformation will never come from our pursuit of intellectual knowledge…it can only come from our trust and obedience in our Heavenly Father Who knows best.
