And I set my mind to know wisdom
and to know madness and folly;
I realized that this also is striving after wind.

The Holy Bible is a real treasure to humanity.
There is no book like it on Earth.
God wrote this book through holy men of God for mankind (2 Timothy 3:16).
No wonder it is called the Word of God.
Several authors of the Holy Bible left a legacy for us to learn from.
King Solomon is one of those who left a legacy for us.
All the things he learned from wisdom, madness, and folly, he wrote down for our benefit.
Jesus Christ left behind the best legacy.
Dear friends, read the books of Ecclesiastes, Proverbs, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, and you will gain wisdom.
Learning from their good legacy will help us to keep away from making mistakes.
Prayer suggestion
