Welcome to Day 1931 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.
This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
The Foundation of Love – Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on
trek.com/wisdom-trek-podcast/day-1931">Day 1931 of our trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote and some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.
Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase wisdom and create a living legacy.
Proverbs 16:16 says,
"How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver!" If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget.
Today’s quote is from Ella Wheeler Wilcox, and it is,
“All love that has not friendship for its base, is like a mansion built upon the sand.”
The Foundation of Love
Love must have the underlying foundation of friendship to thrive and prosper. So is it through that enduring bond of friendship that becomes a solid rock on which love must be built. While the passion associated with love may ebb and flow at times, when love is built on that base of friendship, it is like a house built on a solid foundation of rock that allows the love to persevere.
Although we will continually be buffeted by the storms of life, which will create strain on a love relationship, it will not destroy that love when the solid foundation is friendship. Therefore, it is wise to foster friendship first, then allow the love to grow from that initial foundation.

Matthew 7:24-27
“Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”
As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of our
Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.
