Since its debut 3 years ago, Gold Rush Alaska is one of the few television shows my wife and 3 children watch together. During their inaugural season, my wife dubbed this show, “Idiots from Alaska” based upon all the rookie mistakes the Hoffman Crew made each episode trying to mine for gold. Yet, like the ancient proverb promises, if you cry out for wisdom, she will be found, Proverbs 3:13-14, demonstrated by recent success during season 3 shown on the Discovery Channel.
As of January 11th, 2013, the current price of gold is $1.654 an ounce. While the numbers are tempting to contemplate your own quest, there are other treasures in America more valuable than gold. According to Proverbs 2:1-5, there are great moral benefits to digging for wisdom. However, this treasure hunt is spiritual in nature, relying on the 5 senses as tools to find God’s glory hole.
All great soul miners need a few essential vehicles to begin their journey. First, a state of the art hearing aide, dialed into the Word of God is a must to follow all mining commands, Proverbs 2:2. Second, you must follow this playbook, not deviating to the left or right, Proverbs 4:27. Finally, when drilling test holes, one must lean of experts of the past to guide you on this rush, Proverbs 13:10. When all else fails, invest in a special generator, the Holy Spirit model, to lead you to pay dirt!
