OUR STUFF, HERE TODAY GONE TOMORROW

 
Proverbs 27:24


"For riches do not endure forever, and a crown is not secure for all generations." NIV


"For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation?" KJV


We live in a time when our status in society is measured by how much material wealth we have. This creates a driving force for all of us to work as hard as we can, in one way or another, to get more and more. This is a deceiving plan of Satan. He knows as humans we will become attached to our "things" and will want more. Then we will get our eyes off of what really matters, the things of God. Material wealth is only for a little while. The life of God through Christ Jesus and His will for our lives is forever.


Heavenly Father, forgive us for getting caught up in the things of this world. Give us discernment to know it is a trick of Satan. Give us the right perspective about the possessions with which You have blessed us. In Jesus' name, Amen.
