Proverbs 2:1-6
My child, if you receive my words, and store up my commands within you, by making your ear attentive to wisdom, and by turning your heart to understanding, indeed, if you call out for discernment—raise your voice for understanding— if you seek it like silver, and search for it like hidden treasure, then you will understand how to fear the Lord, and you will discover knowledge about God. For the Lord gives wisdom, and from his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
Lord God, please teach us to seek insight and understanding like they are hidden treasures. Let our hearts be humble and approach You, seeking Your guidance and wisdom always. This verse is a promise Lord, that it pleases You to grant wisdom to Your children, and also that we ought to seek You out for it. If a treasure map came our way, we would surely follow it if there was even the slightest change it was real. How much more should we turn to You and delight in the pursuit of wisdom, when You have assured us that wisdom comes from You, and You want to provide it! Keep our hearts from chasing after treasures that will pass away, and lead us in seeking real treasure that is only found in Christ Jesus. Amen.
