The Book of Sirach Ch 20 v- 30 thru 31

30 Hidden wisdom and unseen treasure— what value has either? 31 Better are those who hide their folly than those who hide their wisdom.

Hidden wisdom and unseen treasure hold immense value in our lives, often surpassing the worth of material possessions or immediate gratification. In a world where knowledge is easily accessible and information is readily available at our fingertips, the concept of hidden wisdom may seem outdated. However, it is the pursuit of this hidden wisdom that can lead us to deeper understanding, personal growth, and fulfillment.

Hidden wisdom can be found in the teachings of ancient texts, the insights of spiritual leaders, or the experiences of those who have walked before us. It is often shrouded in mystery and requires diligent seeking and contemplation to uncover its true meaning. This hidden wisdom can provide us with guidance, inspiration, and a sense of purpose that goes beyond the superficialities of everyday life.

Similarly, unseen treasure can take many forms – whether it be a hidden talent waiting to be discovered, a meaningful connection with another person, or a valuable lesson learned through hardship. These treasures are often overlooked or undervalued in our fast-paced, materialistic society. However, they can bring us lasting joy, fulfillment, and a sense of abundance that transcends material wealth.

The value of hidden wisdom and unseen treasure lies in their ability to enrich our lives on a deeper level, helping us to cultivate wisdom, compassion, and a sense of connection to something greater than ourselves. In a world that often values superficiality and instant gratification, those who seek out hidden wisdom and unseen treasure are truly wise. They understand that true wealth lies not in what is visible to the eye, but in the depths of the human spirit.

As the saying goes, "Better are those who hide their folly than hide their wisdom." This wisdom reminds us that it is far more valuable to seek out hidden truths and treasures than to hide our true selves or pretend to be something we are not. By embracing the value of hidden wisdom and unseen treasure, we can unlock the full potential of our lives and experience a sense of richness and abundance that transcends the limitations of the material world. Amen.

Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. The Lord’s Prayer.

At the Savior's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously grant peace in our days, that, by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress, as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours now and for ever. Amen.

I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen Son in Law Mark Stern; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. We pray for Holy Mother Church. Our prayers for our niece Brittany. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Treasure unseen or wisdom hidden**

Treasure unseen or wisdom hidden

Either has value what

Folly better hide or be smitten

Than wisdom theirs completely stuck
