1 Kings 10:8 Happy are your men and happy are these your servants, who stand continually before you and hear your wisdom!

When the queen of Sheeba came to Solomon to find out about his wisdom and to improve her own, she was probably not prepared for all that she saw and heard.

She saw just how happy the men of Israel were under his guidance and how they thrived in knowing that their king was so wise all the time.

By the end of her visit she knew that this came from God and that it was God who deserved the praise; but the happiness belonged to the people who came under that God, our God!
