From today's Mass Reading 1, 1 Kings 3, we learn how in a dream the Lord asked Solomon to ask something of him and he would give it to him. Solomon asked for an understanding heart to judge the people and to distinguish right from wrong. The Lord was pleased because Solomon did not ask for a long life, nor riches, nor for the life of his enemies, but for understanding so that he might know what's right. A good question to think about: Should the Lord ask you the same question, what would you ask for?
