Proverbs 1:7

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Understanding this passage

True knowledge starts with reverence for God, not with having every answer. Wisdom begins with who God is.

Why this verse helps

Doubt can chase information and still feel empty. This verse says the starting point is honoring the Lord.

A prayer for you

Lord, teach me to fear You. Let that be the beginning of the knowledge I need. Amen.
