External Benefits of Wisdom

Proverbs 10:1:
1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish son is a sorrow to his mother.

Here begins a new section of the book of Proverbs consisting of wise sayings from Solomon, a man famous for his God given wisdom. The first one here shows how our pursuit of wisdom has a direct impact not only our ourselves, but those around us. Wise children make their loved ones happy, foolish children bring them sadness. It seems obvious, but how often do we take others into account when we think about our own learning and discipline?
