And God said to him,

"Because you have asked this,

and have not asked for yourself

long life or riches

   or the life of your enemies,

but have asked for yourself

understanding to discern

              what is right,

behold, I now do

            according to your word.

Behold, I give you

    a wise and discerning mind...

I give you also

         what you have not asked....

                           1 Kings 3. 11-13

(And God says to each one of us today

        "Ask what I shall give you."

Live for His glory).
