For the love of money is a root of all
kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their
greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
1 Timothy 6:10
In life, we make many choices every day; from what we eat, to how we act.
We live in a time of abundance. When you think about life in other
times and even other cultures, we are not lacking; most have what they
need. It is what we want that causes us t o lose our balance. We have a
tendency to over indulge. Even some of the best things in life can turn
sour when over done. The more we have, the more we desire. Sometimes we
need to be reminded that we are servants of God and that all we do is for
Him. It is not the "stuff" we obtain that will make us happy or unhappy,
but our love for the "stuff" will destroy us. It is only the love of God
that gives us peace and happiness.
Prayer
Father forgive us for becoming obsessed, spoiled children, always wanting
more or what we cannot have. Remind us of our purpose and who we are. Let
us be content with what we have and count our blessings. You are our
provider. You see to our every need and we thank you. Amen.
