Too Focused on Possessions
Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth,
where moth and rust destroy,
and where thieves break in and steal.
"But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven,
"But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven,
where neither moth nor rust destroys,
and where thieves do not break in or steal;
for where your treasure is,
for where your treasure is,
there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:19-21
True contentment comes from godliness in
the heart, not from wealth in the hand.
Warren Wiersbe
In this age of materialism, it's pretty hard not to become a lemming. Sometimes I ask myself, if all my earthly possesions were destroyed, would I be okay with that? The truth is, I don't think so. I'm not happy with this answer.
