God offered to Solomon anything he wanted. The young king requested wisdom. This answer pleased the Lord, so He gave him everything else too.

Solomon identified its importance when he said, “To start being wise you must first get wisdom. No matter what it costs, get understanding.” [Pr. 4:7]

DAILY PRAYER: Lord, forgive me for chasing other things. Fill me with Your wisdom for my daily life.
