Proverbs 4:7-8
Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom:
and with all thy getting get understanding.
Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour,
when thou dost embrace her.
Getting in inescapable. Everyone is attempting to get something. Wisdom is the best thing to get. In all the time you spend trying to get things, make sure, above all, that you are getting wisdom.
Pursue wisdom as you would pursue a beautiful, godly girl. Court wisdom. Look after her, desire her, chase her. Passionately love wisdom. Do not play with her as a side project, but pursue her for marriage, for a lifelong love affair.
Do not count the costs of getting her as an infringement upon your bachelorhood. Whatever you do, do everything to get and keep and live with wisdom.
