WELLSPRING

"The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; The fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook."
Proverbs 18:4

The word of the man does not always reveal his intentions, and many times, conceal the truth. But the Word of God gives wisdom and blessings, just like a constant wellspring.

TARGET

"Wisdom is in the presence of the one who has understanding, But the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth." Proverbs 17:24

The target of those who live by the intelligent faith is to seeks God's wisdom, but those who do not wish to heed to the Divine counsel will be stuck in time.

SLOW

"The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance." 2 Peter 3:9

There are promises and promises. Some are meant to be fulfiled in God's appointed time, like His return, whilst others depend only upon faith in action.

LIFE

"My fruit is better than gold, even pure gold, And my yield better than choicest silver. I walk in the way of righteousness, In the midst of the paths of justice." Proverbs 8:19-20

All teaching and guidance given by God are eternal. They cannot be compared to gold or any of the lovely and valuable things of this world. Therefore, it is much better to put His thoughts, which are Righteous and Truthful, into practice.
