As humans we are so fixated on wealth. Aren't we blessed that Christ ransomed his life for us? IT DOES SUFFICE! Sometimes life may be the pits, but for those of us who believe, we are promised eternity with God.

Psalm 49:5-12

Why should I fear in times of trouble,when the iniquity of those who cheat me surrounds me,


those who trust in their wealth and boast of the
abundance of their riches? 


Truly no man can ransom another, or give to God the price of his life,


for the ransom of their life is costly and can never suffice,


that he should live on forever and never see the pit.


For he sees that even the wise die; the fool and the stupid alike must perish and leave their wealth to others.


Their graves are their homes forever, their dwelling places to all generations, though they called lands by their own names.


Man in his pomp will not remain; he is like the beasts that perish.

  1. Just started reading "The Treasure Principle" by Randy Alcorn again. Some years back it helped reset my thinking about wealth / possessions / things. Its all His and I am his money manager.
    Thanks for this reminder of treasure in heaven.
