Some of the richest people I have met were the most miserable, discontent people. For all their money and stuff they were so unpleasant to be around. They make others uncomfortable too. I have met rich happy people too. Most of them realized it wasn’t their pocketbook that made them rich.
And I have worked with people living below poverty who were the most generous, happy, and content people. They also knew their pocketbook didn’t make them rich.
The truth about your pocketbook is that if God is truly at the center of your life, you are rich beyond measure. Your treasure will never depreciate, never be bankrupt and never be stolen. It is an eternal wealth that Jesus died for you to have.
