Daily Meditation
Whoso Finds Me Finds Life
The LORD possessed me in the beginning
of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the
beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought
forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains
were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: While as yet he had not
made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face
of the depth: When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the
fountains of the deep: When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters
should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the
earth: Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his
delight, rejoicing always before him; rejoicing in the habitable part of his
earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
Now therefore hearken
unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. Hear
instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not. Blessed is the man that heareth
me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. For whoso
findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. But he that
sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death. Proverbs
8:22-36
