Focus: Beware of Covetousness

WORD FOR TODAY
The life of a man is not all about what he gets but also what he gives and how he lived his life!!!
************************************
Scriptural Reference
"And He said to them, "Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses." (Luke 12:15 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sometimes I observe the lives of some people and discover that despite their quest for money and material possessions they couldn't achieve more than what they achieved and in a long run, left everything for people who didn't contribute much to their struggles. Some of these people find it very difficult to find the required satisfaction from their achievements.

With all they have, they still yearn for more even as they live in the guilt of living unrighteous lives. The life of the rich fool was cut short after all he gathered. Everything he worked for became another's. You are an eternal being, you have not come to stay here on earth. Trust God for your needs and live to please Him and have it at the back of your mind that it is only what you are able to pass on to eternity is what is truly your own.

Life is given to prepare for eternity. Great men with great certificates, titles, power, material possessions, have come and gone. Settle not for euphemism live with eternity consciousness having God in view.
