Where is YOUR life headed? Are you in an endless cycle of acquisition of things and then working, working and working without end to obtain the funds to accumulate more and more. If not things, then is money your goal? Is the prospect of having a five (or maybe even six) figure bank account all you dream about? Take a moment as ask yourself... If I do get all the things I ever wanted and all the money I could ever spend- then what? Really, then WHAT? Where do I go from there??
YOUR life may seem endless, but that is an illusion. Without warning, you may leave this world at any time and then what happens to all that you have acquired; all that you hold most dear??? But, there is another way to look at life. Consider the following...
1 Timothy, Chapter 6 (WEB)
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we certainly can’t carry anything out. 8 But having food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9 But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Be as happy as the puppy in the shoe! God can give you that!! More than that, he can give you FOREVER!!! And forever is a very, very, very long time!!!! So, where are you headed? Really??
