Mankind can't seem to get a handle on it....how do we fix this mess? God made it all, give him the chance to fix it, choose not to and I believe it's going to be over!
All The World’s Riches….Mere Vanity
Peace and Joy. For millions of people that is not a birth right. Poverty, disease and social unrest come to rob you of your ‘true’ riches. Mankind has established financial wealth as the measurement of success and accomplishment. A billionaire can have everything, but when the God of the universe beckons his soul, where is the Peace, where is the Joy….like a vapor gone! God watches us as we continue to build our houses on the sand and not the rock. Those who build this way labor in vain. King Solomon was the wisest and wealthiest man to ever live and in his wisdom he spoke from the heart….’it is all but vanity.’
What is if for a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul? All the money spent on supplements, weight loss plans, cosmetic surgery, working out and on and on. At the end of your energy exhausted, time wasted and money spent by God’s calendar you haven’t added one second to your life.
Maybe it’s not ringing up in your bank account, but if you want some real dividend yielding assets start serving your fellow man. It’s not hard to find where to make a deposit. The worlds covered with people in need. Go visit a nursing home, pray for someone, volunteer at a soup kitchen, when you grocery shop this week pick up a bag for your local church or food pantry. If you see someone with sign on the road asking for a helping hand give him the $5.00 money for this weeks lottery picks, God will see that and your lottery winning will surely be counted. When your riding along in your warm car and see someone without a coat, make it a point to look for that person tomorrow and bring that old coat you never wear to Bless them. Jesus said as you have given to any one of these, you have given to me.
Personally I need to learn how to love. Where there is perfect love, there is no fear. The two cannot coexist. As a society today, outside the walls of church do we know how to love someone? Good morning….how are you today? Great job today! I appreciate the ride home. Thank you for lending me that money. Do you feel bad today….I’ve got some medicine I think can help you. I don’t know about you, but I think hospitality has disappeared, I feel this world has become very cold.
Greed, selfishness, a desire to get ahead regardless of the cost, deadline pressure, bottom lines, the stress is staggering. We’ve managed to create a race of robots, faster, faster, faster, no mistakes, no wasted materials, no quarters in the red. Where does all that pressure vent itself? It manifest itself on your family, coworkers, that person driving in front of you or that person that just broke into the grocery line.
When people finally pop….I didn’t ever see that side of them, quiet, kept to himself, never seem to fit in. Could it be that when they tried to fit in they were talked over, when they made their point they were laughed or stared at, when they kept to themselves they were trying to gather the pieces, people couldn’t understand their ‘grumpiness.’
We have a world spinning out of control and the USA, the greatest country on earth has decided they’d rather count their earthly riches, well I’m convinced the stacks of money are about to start crumbling. God wants to be a part of his Creation’s lives, but most Americans act as if they don’t need God in their lives. They want the feel good, now, forget about the consequences of tomorrow life.
The storm clouds are gathering and God’s counting his sheep….are you on his list? If you want to hold on to your worldly wealth (money, sex, drugs, alcohol, fame) it’s shortly going to be absolutely worthless.
Our country needs to take hold of what we know is right and put God back in our daily lives, to continue down this path will be destruction of life as we know it. God has said turn from your evil ways and seek my face and I will heal you land. I don’t see anyone in the flesh producing any answers, how have we managed to slip so far?
We need God today like the Israel of old needed God. He’s the only answer for the world’s ills. Doesn’t matter what you’ve done, he’s already died for it. Ask him into your heart today and let’s watch him heal this great nation. PRAISE YOUR NAME JESUS!
