For the profit of wisdom is better than silver, and her wages are better than gold.
It storied that as Alexander the Great was conquering nations and vast territories, his armies had taken such extreme spoils of treasure that it had actually become burdensome to transport the loot. Upon realizing this, Alexander had his men gather up these treasures and he ordered them to be burned. At first, the soldiers were angry, but later they realized the wisdom of their leader. They were able to move faster and proceeded to easily gain victory in their next war campaign. Wisdom is truly more valuable than riches. So exactly what would be the best way to gain wisdom? The beginning of wisdom is in giving reverence to God. Are you giving reverence to God in all of your actions?
