Searching For Gold

As we go through life, we sometimes find "gold",
The kind we can't buy, for it isn't sold.
It often is hidden in uncommon places,
In people, in lives, in unknown faces.

In times with the Lord, and times spent in serving,
When we are sensitive and are observing...
Sometimes the Lord will open our eyes
And we will see gold in unusual guise.

Inside we're changed and have new perspective,
Being much humbled as we are reflective.
His gold is precious and much to be treasured...
A much-revered gift which cannot be measured.

"Happy (blessed, fortunate, enviable) is the man who finds skillfuland godly Wisdom, and the man who gets understanding (drawing it forth from God's Word and life's experiences). For the gaining of it is better than the gaining of silver, and the profit of it better than fine gold."
Proverbs 3:13-14 Amplified Bible
