DAY EIGHT

Good evening to all of you. Here we are in Atlanta, GA. Even though it rained most of our trip, it was fairly smooth and easy. We will be starting our morning at about 5:oo am in order to beat the traffic and to check in on time. Our first seminar starts at 8:30 with Andy Stanley who is one of my favorite authors and the Pastor of North Point in Atlanta. So considering it's almost mid-night our time I'll get to the point quickly tonight.

Those who have put their stock (no pun intended, well at first it wasn't intended), in riches can quickly find out riches can leave as fast as they come. For the second time in this book it is established that nothing compares to God's instruction. His wisdom gained is nothing lost.

Verse 17 shares the benefits that are found when we search out the wisdom of God. How great would it be if all of our treasuries were full. I bet Washington and Wall Street would like that right about now. Of course if we would turn to God instead of running away from God we might continue to be a blessed nation. It does seem however that we tend to run back to God in times of crisis. Anyway their is a lot more blessings available we just need to search for wisdom and then we will find those blessings. This leads me to my final thought for the evening.

I am now calling all House Reps to become WISDOM PAPARAZZI. Verses 32-35 clarify this somewhat weird new concept of mine. "And so my children, listen to me, for all who follow my ways our joyful. Listen to my instruction and be wise. Don't ignore it. Joyful are those who listen to me, watching for me daily at my gates, waiting for me outside my home! For whoever finds me finds life and receives favor from the Lord." Think about it for a moment and it will make sense. I must now convince myself to get to sleep before I have to wake up. I'm running out of time.

I Love You All
