Proverbs 3:19-20 — As Solomon continues to write in praise of wisdom, he says to his son that “the LORD by wisdom founded the earth.” In making this statement Solomon tells us about the nature of God’s creative work. God intentionally, thoughtfully and with great skill created the universe and this has immense implications for the way we view ourselves and the world. Because God, “by wisdom,” founded the earth our existence has value and purpose.
