Verse of the Day

How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver! Proverbs 16:16

You know, this proverb is soooo true. Sometimes, certain verses in the Bible just amaze me with the insight and wisdome that they offer. This is one of those verses. I would rather have wisdom and understanding over wealth untold anyday. Stupidity with money is never a good thing, and greed totally changes people. People who become obsesses with the next dollar, who try to "keep up with the Joneses", are never satisfied. They only have temporal happiness, and miss the joy that can come from truly seeking wisdom and understanding through a relationship with the Lord.
