Wisdom

Proverbs 1:7 (Amplified Bible)
The reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is the beginning and the principal and choice part of knowledge [its starting point and its essence]; but fools despise skillful and godly Wisdom, instruction, and discipline.

Psalm 111:10 (Amplified Bible)
10The reverent fear and worship of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom and skill [the preceding and the first essential, the prerequisite and the alphabet]; a good understanding, wisdom, and meaning have all those who do [the will of the Lord]. Their praise of Him endures forever.

Every time I read Proverbs 1 I am reminded that having God's wisdom starts with my reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord.
