What treasure are you seeking?Today's Scripture:
Wisdom is the real "rich stuff" for which you should search. insight is more valuable than gold and gems. Just as the goonies found their treasure, you can find the hidden treasure of understanding if you seek diligently. Proverbs even gives a treasure map to follow. Listen to wiser, more experienced leaders around you. Try to understanding the way they think. Ask questions of them. Study diligently in the areas they suggest you need to grow as a leader.
When you seek wisdom, you will gain understanding of the power of God.
Just as the goonies respected the captain, maintain a proper balance of respect and fear by heeding God's advice. He has a storehouse of treasured wisdom waiting for you to find it.
Selah people' and friends target an area of your job in which you need more wisdom. With the help of a mentor, develop and implement an action plan to more effectively address the targeted area.
"May our hunt to find the treasure God intended by revealed in the map that he has left to show us the way."

My son, if you receive my words, and treasure my commands within you, so that you incline your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding; yes, if you cry out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding, if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures; then you will understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.
Proverbs 2: 1-5
Proverbs 2: 1-5
If you were a Spielberg fan in the1980s, you may have seen Goonies, the story of a group of self-proclaimed misfits searching for a lost treasure. Although thee goonies were ridiculed for believing that the gold could be found, they searched diligently for the treasure. When the kids found the treasure ship full of the "rich stuff" as they called it, they were careful to leave the captain's treasure untouched. They maintained respect for the captain and a healthy fear of his warnings not to touch his personal treasure. In doing so, they were able to avoid the booby traps and later rescue their families from financial ruin with the remaining treasure that they discovered in the sunken ship.
