Finding Wisdom

If you seek wisdom
listen in your heart.
Be attuned to Me
if you seek discernment.

Will you seek wisdom
to see My hidden pearl?
Seek eyes to see meaning
hid in life's ordinary paths.

Will you give up
all that owns you
to find My treasure
hid in plain sight.

If like Solomon
you ask for wisdom.
I offer heavenly
riches and glory.

Remember all things
work together for good
for all I call who
know and love Me.
(1st Kings 3:5-12, Matthew 13:44-52, Romans 8:28-30)

It takes a while to realize we need to seek wisdom and not knowledge
