Wealthy or not, here I come...

Wow, this puts it in perspective.(Click Here)

I saw this on another blog and felt I needed to post it here as well. I know many times I find myself in the situation of comparing my life, my wealth, my "toys," to those who have more than I. Why do we do this? Very rarely do we look the other direction. What do the Scriptures say concerning wealth? Here are a few verses:

"Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine." Proverbs 3:9 NIV

"Better a little with the fear of the Lord than great wealth with turmoil."
Proverbs 15:16 NIV


"Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is doshonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?" Luke 16:10 NIV

Hmmm . . . . . there you have it.
