Nothing New
Ecclesiastes 1:9-10 That which has been is what will be, that which is done will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. Is there anything of which it may be said, “See, this is new?” It has already been in ancient times before us. Spanish flu...
Wisdom?
Proverbs 1:5 A wise man will hear and increase learning, and a man of understanding will attain wise counsel. Where do we look for wise counsel? If our car breaks down, maybe a mechanic? If we are sick, maybe a doctor? If we want to build a house, maybe...

Times?
1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 2 Timothy 2:22-24 Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. But...
Understanding?
Job 42:1-3 Then Job answered and said: “I know that You can do all things, and that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You. You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel with out knowledge?’ Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful...
