Wisdom Begins With Reverence

by Torrie Slaughter

Psalm 14 draws a clear line: life disconnected from God eventually loses clarity. Not because God withholds wisdom—but because we stop listening.

The wilderness exposes what we’ve been leaning on. Healing comes when reverence returns to its rightful place—not as fear, but as awe.

Jehovah Rophe heals the heart by realigning the mind.

Yes, LORD moment:
What would it look like to begin again with reverence?

Action Step:
End the week by thanking God—not for outcomes, but for His nearness.
