As I read through the Proverbs, I can't shake the image of the wise man sitting on the mountain top. Hundreds of people climbing to gain one piece of wisdom.
Along the path there is a sign:
Pay attention and turn your ear to the sayings of the wise; apply your heart to what I teach, for it is pleasing when you keep them in your heart and have all of them ready on your lips. Proverbs 22:17-18 NIV
When they return having seen the same sign, they collect all the sayings and write them down so others might know and so that they might remember them.
Read the wisdom.
Apply the wisdom.
God will be pleased - that's a promise.
