Age should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom…but it is the inspiration of the Almighty that gives man understanding. Job 32:7-8 Wisdom is not the automatic outcome of age, and maturity is not a given as we grow. But when we are willing to open ourselves to the Lord’s life lessons, we will find a perception, prudence, and practicality worth sharing with others. In this book, we are given the valuable advice of a man who has been a missionary, preacher, student, hard-worker, gardener, husband, author, son, father, grandfather, great-grandfather-all in one. A man who calls his life blessed, not because it has been sorrow-free, but because it has been God-filled. And because of his openness to God’s perspective, he is able to give us countless counsel in this alphabetized list of Hilliard’s Proverbs Inspired by Experience.
