If you think you’ll be more content if you just made more money, without already having peace and contentment in your life, you’re heading for a dead-end! So are the people trying to convince you that you just need MORE STUFF?
It’s all fake. A facade!
It’s never been about material possessions.
Money will not bring you peace, or contentment. In fact, it can nurture just the opposite.
A quick check might produce a quick burst of happiness—like Friday night fireworks at Disneyland. It’s here tonight and gone in the morning.
Do you want eternal joy? Lasting contentment? There’s only one place to find it.
It’s in your relationships.
This means:
1.You are a part of some sort of community where you can freely express yourself, share your ups and downs, and be fully accepted by others.
2.Secondly, you have a relationship with God who introduces you to an endless supply of love!
When you have more love, you have more abundance. You need fewer things. You are less consumed by STUFF.
Without God, your needs won’t be perfectly met because they aren’t perfect.
Today, turn your hurting, broken, lonely or depressed heart to the one that can fix it: Jesus Christ.
Psalm 107:9
“For He satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul He fills with good things.”
Be encouraged today because God is with you.
