Seek It Like Silver

My son, if you receive my words
   and treasure up my commandments with you,
making your ear attentive to wisdom
   and inclining your heart to understanding;
yes, if you call out for insight
   and raise your voice for understanding,
if you seek it like silver
   and search for it as for hidden treasures,
then you will understand the fear of the LORD
   and find the knowledge of God.
For the LORD gives wisdom;
   from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
he stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
   he is a shield to those who walk in integrity. Prv 2:1-7

I don't have much to say (or rather so much to say thank I can't find the right summation), so I thought these words from Proverbs might more than suffice. Each day we are in a wisdom / foolishness battle, not just on the days profound heresy hits the bookshelves. So today, and everyday, I will seek God's wisdom like silver. Can anyone picture a treasure hidden in a field?

To God Alone be the Glory
