If you had one wish. . .

If you could have one wish granted, what would your wish be? Take a minute and think about it. I'm not going to ask what it is. I remember fondly, the story of a young Solomon. God called to him in the night, and after some misunderstanding about who was calling him, he eventually answered. God asked Solomon what he would have given to him. He asked for wisdom and an understanding heart. I can't help but wonder if an understanding heart would top my list if I were given a blank check by God. There is a beauty in Solomon's choice; the recognition that he was not equal to the task before him, and the recognition that he needed God to help him. And all of this reminds me of how much I need God to help me.
