Gifts

what do materials riches mean?

is it how much assets and cash one have? is it the amount of inheritance we have to our accounts? or is it living a luxurious lifestyle? then.... what do they mean to different people? right... money is important, but is it everything? or is it that today's society has inculcated in the masses its selfish materialistic values?

sadly, there are many people, whom each living their lives without a belief in the existence of a higher supernatural order, chose to cast their destiny on the creation of material accumulation. but, how fulfiled are they spiritually? i don't deny that i enjoy buying expensive things, neither am i a religiously devoted person. but, i acknowledge God and His interventions and blessings in my life, knowing that all material things i enjoy today can be confiscated tomorrow. parents can go bankrupt, houses can catch fire, planes can crash, business can fail....

every cent spent is hard earned. every cent today is tomorrow's investment. why not garner energy towards how one can improve and accumulate more skills, knowledge and experiences to reap the fortunes of tomorrow....
