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

When we talk about blessing and prosperity we need to keep it in this context.  Proverbs has a lot to say about wealth and how we get it but this is a reminder to keep things in perspective.  How often do we have a choice?  How often do we judge others on their bank balance rather than their wisdom.

So keep your priorities in line.  Seek that which is eternal.
