It is far better to be a Christian who does not have much in this world, in comparison to being a wicked person who abounds in wealth and material possessions. There will come a day where all of these earthly things will pass away and we will be faced with what matters the most – our eternity. Those who have believed in God and followed His ways will be given eternal life. Those who have chosen to be wicked will, unfortunately, face eternal damnation.
And we pray:
Dear God, I pray that I will never lose sight of what truly matters in this life. May my mind always be concerned with Your Kingdom, Lord, and not in amassing wealth on this Earth. I know that everything I attain on Earth is temporary. May my mind never lose sight of what truly matters – spending eternity with You. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
