The wages of wisdom are more profitable than silver, better than gold.

So these wages are things like:

Making better choices – more good ones, less bad ones.

Setting the right priorities in my life – spending my time and energy on the most valuable things.

Hearing God’s voice daily as he guides me on my next step.

Being successful by God’s definition, not by the values of this crazy culture we live in.

Building a Godly legacy which will influence my children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren for generations to come.

Gotta love that list – definitely joyful!
