My daughter, if you are looking for something to pursue, if you need a target for all of your life’s energies, let me suggest that you seek wisdom. If you aim for riches, you might gain them, and then find them not enough to satisfy. If you pour out yourself for a cause, even if it a good cause, you might succeed, and ruin your health doing it. Then, what good will you be to those who depend on you. Wisdom will never let you down. You will never find yourself saying “what a waste of time that was.”
LORD, give us the wisdom to pursue wisdom.
