Growing up, many of us dreamed of taking a wild adventure to a faraway land to find hidden treasure. We'd play for hours pretending to be an explorer, a pirate, or an archaeologist who was terrified of snakes but could outrun any bone-crushing boulder! We look on our imaginary map while hunting for clues and avoiding danger to find where "X marks the spot." As we get a little older, we learn to seek out other types of treasure: popularity, good grades, nice clothes, and the list goes on.
But what if we pursued something deeper than all of that combined? Solomon, former king of Israel, encouraged us to get wisdom above anything else . . . even above wealth. This was a man who became king, yet we have records of him asking God for more wisdom, not more power. This set him on the best adventure, learning to be a humble and wise king. The greatest adventure we could ever embark on is the journey to discover biblical truth.
