COT:
In American, we are generally very blessed. Many have more than enough to live, and we often are always in pursuit of more. Life is more than riches and success. Let me share a passage with you to consider.
Luke 12:15-21
“Then He said to them, “Beware, and be on your guard against every form of greed; for not even when one has an abundance does his life consist of his possessions.” And He told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man was very productive. And he began reasoning to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’ Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry.” ’ But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?’ So is the man who stores up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”

There is a lot that we can take from this passage, but I want to hone in on our pursuit of riches. This pursuit gets in the way of doing more important things like serving God and spending time with our families. True life isn’t about riches at all! Be on guard and don’t let greed rule your life.
