My Self Worth
Living in Southern California, it’s easy to get caught up in a self-worth race. Looking around, people have bigger houses, bigger yards, bigger cars – and undoubtedly, bigger bank accounts. Looking rich is looking good. Even a dish washer in a restaurant drives a Lexus!
This obsession to have more is unhealthy. All of this “stuff” that I have is merely on loan. My God, the master of the universe, is the owner (Luke 16:12). I don’t take my possessions to heaven.
I need to be different from this world. I need to be transformed (Romans 12:2). My thinking about money is to be directed towards bringing people to God. It’s the way to store up my “treasures” in heaven (Matthew 6:20-21).
I need to be investing for eternity.
