Proverbs 15 quietly exposes the heart.

It speaks often about words—but not just what we say. It reminds us that our speech flows from what we’ve been nurturing inside. A gentle answer, a teachable spirit, a willingness to receive correction—those are marks of wisdom rooted in the fear of the Lord.

This chapter contrasts the righteous and the fool again, not to shame us, but to clarify the way forward. The wise listen. The fool resists. Laziness complicates life. Obedience clears the road.

Proverbs 15 reminds us that wisdom is not loud or flashy. It is faithful.
And it shows up in how we speak, how we listen, and how willing we are to be shaped by God.

Full reflection is up on the blog. 💛
