TRUE WEALTH 1

Proverbs 3:13-14 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
(14) For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
 
My wife and I were discussing the fact that we were almost debt free this week.  I made the remark that when we become debt free we will be better off than a big proportion of the people in our country.  We might not live in a great mansion but we love our home and are thankful to God for it.  Our newest vehicle is 8 years old but it runs good and gets us where we want to go.

Unlike many people with large houses and new vehicles, if we had to settle up at the end of the day we would still have all of our stuff left.
 
One of the things that makes us truly rich is knowing that none of it belongs to us completely but the Lord has provided it for us to use.
 
It is sad that so many people think that they can find happiness with a credit card or peace with a charge account.  The understanding that all the material things in this world are temporary and that our true riches are laid up for us in Heaven can cause us to be happy and content with what God has blessed us with.
