Lydia Bosco, from USA, cites the example of King Solomon to ponder over the importance of obedience.
Wisdom is one of the greatest gifts from God. We may be one who is praying and longing for wisdom. Job 28:17 says about wisdom, “Neither gold nor crystal can compare with it, nor can it be had for jewels of gold.” Also Proverbs 4:7 says,“Get wisdom though it cost all you have.” Even though wisdom is valuable, without the virtue of obedience, it is in vain, because we may only be able to achieve some temporary goals and accumulate goods that will perish in this world.
