I know people who have tremendous resources, and I know people who have very little money. I treat both equally.
Money can change people, and not always in a good way. It’s important to remember that money is no more than an instrument to provide for our needs, and it’s a tool to use for good. We get to choose.
People are what’s important. Let’s focus on who people are, not what they have…
The culture of the United States is greed. People work themselves to poor health, shaky relationships and find themselves disillusioned. They may have acquired wealth, but lost themselves along the way.
None of this is taught in the Bible. Solomon, the wealthiest man to ever live, asked God for wisdom. And he got it!
You must decide what’s important to you. If you value your family, your health and seek fulfillment, you might not have as much money, but you will be wealthier than most…
Making money is one of the easiest things we do. Yet, people use it as a measuring stick to see how well they are doing versus other people. That’s pointless! When you start to compare yourself with others, you rob yourself of so much.

We humans have a tendency to be selfish. It’s our default mechanism. We hold on tightly to our money and our time out of fear.
When we give, we get. This is true and I encourage you to test it. Even more remarkable, there is only one time in Scripture that God tells us to “test Him.” You can find it in Malachi 3:10.
Life is like a boomerang. When you throw the boomerang, it returns to you but picks up speed on the turn and comes back faster. What we give, we get…
Are you trying to be the busiest person around? After all, our culture believes that high activity is the honorable way. Do not fall into the trap of being too busy for the important things: family, friends and your health.
Our identity is not found in status, accomplishments or more stuff. We find our true identity by seeing ourselves the way God sees us. He sees us as His beautiful creation, and doesn’t consider our position in life. Something to consider…
