智能手机把非凡的财富放在我们指尖。我们可以用这些设备打电话，发短信，拍照，设置预约日历，搜索网络，下载大量的音乐。随着无数应用程序的加入，智能手机里的宝藏成倍增加。在寻找这些宝藏方面，我是个新手，所以我经常要靠我的孩子和孙子来帮助我。
再过两个月我们就要庆祝圣诞节了。看着马槽里看似平凡的耶稣，我们永远不会想到“所积蓄的一切智慧知识，都在他里面藏着。”因此，我们要倚靠圣经来揭示这些宝藏，好使用它们。
智慧是什么？在箴言第8章中，智慧被人格化，他以正直、美好的方式来生活。智慧是“最初被（神）造的”，在耶和华创造宇宙万物之前就有了。智慧在耶稣基督里有了完美体现。在祂里面，我们找到日常生活的洞察力——如何分辨是非，重要和次要，以及短暂和永恒。
知识与理解一门学科有关。耶稣非常了解祂的父，祂是创造主。当科学家们揭开宇宙奇观的表层时，我对神的知识和智慧感到惊讶。祂给了我们一项探索一生的任务——去发现和使用藏在耶稣里的所有宝藏！
主啊，你是智慧、知识和真理的根基。在生活学习的每一天，愿我们在你里面找到一切。阿们。
歌罗西书 2:1-5
1我愿意你们晓得，我为你们和老底嘉人，并一切没有与我亲自见面的人，是何等地尽心竭力，
2要叫他们的心得安慰，因爱心互相联络，以致丰丰足足在悟性中有充足的信心，使他们真知神的奥秘，就是基督，
3所积蓄的一切智慧知识都在他里面藏着。
4我说这话，免得有人用花言巧语迷惑你们。
5我身子虽与你们相离，心却与你们同在，见你们循规蹈矩，信基督的心也坚固，我就欢喜了。
“In [Christ] are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.” — Colossians 2:3
Smartphones put remarkable treasures at our fingertips. We can use these devices to make phone calls, send text messages, take photos, set up appointment calendars, search the Internet, and download vast amounts of music. With the addition of countless apps, the treasures in a smartphone are multiplied a thousandfold. I am a novice at finding all these treasures, so I often rely on my children and grandchildren to help.
Two months from today we will celebrate Christmas. Looking at the seemingly ordinary child Jesus in a manger, we would never guess that “all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” are hidden in him. As a result, we rely on the Bible to reveal these treasures so that we may make use of them.
What is wisdom? Wisdom is personified in Proverbs 8 as being the right and best way to live. Wisdom was “the first of [God’s] works,” brought forth before the Lord created anything else in the universe. And wisdom finds its perfect expression in Jesus Christ. In him we find insight for daily life—how to distinguish right from wrong, the important from the unimportant, and the temporary from the eternal.
Knowledge has to do with understanding a subject. Jesus knows his Father, the Creator, intimately. When scientists begin to scratch the surface of all the wonders of the universe, I stand amazed at the knowledge and wisdom of God. What a lifelong task he has given us—to discover and use all the treasures hidden in Jesus!
Lord, you are the fountain of wisdom, knowledge, and truth. As we live and learn each day, may we find all we need in you. Amen.
