| It would fun to have a brand new convertible sitting in the driveway. Bright red paint, leather interior, custom speakers,that would be great. But then there's the dog who likes to jump on the door. There are the neighbor kids who put fingerprints on all the windows. Insurance, of course, will be sky high . . .Sometimes the nicest possessions carry the heaviest chains. And the heavier the chains, the less enjoyment we get out of them. But we buy more and more chains. Yet in Luke, Jesus tells us what our possessions are good for:"Use your worldly resources to benefit others and make friends. In this way, your generosity stores up a reward for you in Heaven" (Luke 16:9, NLT).We all need things to get by, but if you're getting them for happiness, you're going the wrong way. |
