Our Scripture reading today is Job 28:20, "Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place
of understanding?"
A quote from Mr. Spurgeon on this verse really says it all, "“He seems to say that, though men should
explore the deep places of the earth with all the diligence of miners seeking gold and silver, though they
should exert all their mental force, as miners use all their muscular vigor, and though they should
employ all the machinery within their reach, as men do who pierce through the rocks in search of precious
treasure yet it is not within the range of human labor and skill to attain unto wisdom. That can only be found
by another and a higher method; it must come to us by revelation from God, for we cannot find it by our
own efforts.”
God has given us His Spirit and His Word. His Spirit will use the Word of God to build wisdom in our lives.
It is our responsibility to dig into God's Word every day.
