"Two things I ask of you, O Lord... Keep falsehood and lies far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, 'Who is the Lord?' Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God." -- Proverbs 30:7-9

I am challenged by the second request of this text.  It's not that I want riches, though I think I'd probably like to be tested in that way... It's not that I fear losing sight of God if I were rich or poor.  I'm challenged because if I were to be granted two wishes, I don't know what they would be.  The two requests this proverb writer gives shows wisdom far beyond mine.

So if you had two wishes, what would they be?
