Why is it that as human beings of this world we are in a constant state of "want." I am tired of always wanting more. It is like does this not ever get tiring always thinking i need more and more of this useless stuff the world has to offer.
We can only ever be truly as rich as we feel in our hearts. Don't you think that it would be a much better idea to grow closer to Jesus and do right by him so that we may start building our treasures in heaven. I know that i would rather store up all my treasure in a place and life that is eternal, where they will actually last. Rather than this earth we live in. What good would money and material things be to me here if in a matter of seconds they could be ripped away? How fulfilling would it be to be a millionaire for one day!? Only to die the next day, now what? What is your money good for now? What do you have to show for it? Nothing, absolutely NOTHING!
I wish i could satisfy this feeling of want but i do not think it can ever go away. All i can do is praise God for what he has done and remember that it could be so much worse. If i can not appreciate what i already have then what good is more going to do. Only make me a less appreciative person taking things for granted! I don't want to be that person that doesn't appreciate what they even have. This world is a stressful place. Did you know that 99% of being ill is all in your mind. Stress alone can kill you. And the "stress" of "wanting" and "needing" more is sending us all to an early grave. I know that it is hard to relax and just know Jesus will provide especially when the bills are due tomorrow and you have about a $1 to your name. But trusting him is all we can do. Lets all try and lean on God and remember that more is not always better.
au revoir xoxo belle
