Final Thought for Today

"A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels." – Proverbs 1:5 (KJV)

Let today remind us that learning doesn’t stop at school. We grow wiser when we listen, when we love, and when we lead with kindness — in our faith, our finances, and our families.
