"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.

Through the generations, the Proverbs have served as a source of wisdom. In this book, three generations-Jack Hilliard, his son K. Mark Hilliard, and granddaughter Jessa Hilliard Sexton-reflect on this wisdom and consider its lessons for families today. Though each author has his and her own unique writing style and perspective based on personal life experiences, all are brought together by their mutual love of learning, family, and God's Word.

In many cases, whether or not pain is a friend or foe depends on our outlook on life. We can think of it as a privilege or drudgery. We look at everything that happens from some point of view. If we conclude all is bad, then no matter what happens we will see every experience in a bad connotation. If life is seen as a privilege, then this optimistic view can put a good spin on even our problems, disappointments, and suffering. If optimistic vision allows us to think of the future and others, we may be able to see past our brief pain to the possible good result. The future will be brighter, and the load will be lighter.
