Content Choices

Proverbs 16:16 "How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen that silver!"

So we all know the question "What would you do if you were given a million dollars?" We have all been asked it or pondered it in various ways.

Have any of us been asked what we would do if we had all the wisdom and could understand anything?

I am not going to write much here, but I only want to make one point: The thing which we decided is our choice is also our source of contentment. If we choose gold and silver, we will never be satisfied, as someone will always have more, and if not, we are not going to be happy with riches. Just ask anyone who has it all, they'll tell you they are not happy for their riches. If we choose wisdom and understanding, we will be satisfied. Though there is always more to learn, the wise man or woman is delighted in learning and content to know he or she is following after wisdom in Godly pursuit.

Make your choice today, wisdom or riches, and see how God changes your level of contentment.
