Wisdom is often personified as one who cries out in the streets that all who fear the Lord might find her. Once found, she will keep and guard you. This is strikingly similar to the Ultimate Personification of wisdom--Christ Himself. He calls out to us. He is the Person who walks in and talks of this wisdom that is from above (James 3:13-18).
Proverbs 4:13 "Keep hold of instruction; do not let go; guard her, for she is your life."
Interesting to note: if you do not forsake her (guard her), she will keep and guard you. She is your life. It should be life to you to walk in the wisdom of the Lord. Do not let go!
Proverbs 4:21 "Let them not escape from your sight; keep them within your heart."
Again, keep wisdom within your heart, write it on your heart, bind it one your neck, and you will be kept by her.
