05.05.2014 Old Testament: 1Ki 10.10

To read the Bible in a year, read First Kings 10–11 on May 5, In the year of our Lord 2014

By Don Ruhl

Although Solomon was exceedingly rich, and superabundant in wisdom, when the Queen of Sheba visited him with hard questions and to see his kingdom, she was so moved in her heart that she did this,

Then she gave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, spices in great quantity, and precious stones. There never again came such abundance of spices as the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon (1 Kings 10.10).

This king had everything, yet, he did not have everything, because he did not have the gold and spices that came from Sheba. What do you give someone who already has everything, or if he does not have it, he has the means to get it? You give him something that he does not already have. You will have to be creative, but you can do it.
