I was thinking of how to have more isn't always the best and how you should simplify your life and get back to basics to honor God. I thought how possessions are not the only thing that will ensure a life of peace and success. I thought of how Jesus spoke to give it all up to follow Him.
I thought how I should write this down so that the world knows that I know about them all. I question how people can have so much stuff and feel that is what gives them happiness and acceptance. I almost feel sorry for all those with tons of stuff and money who don't have the peace of God in with it.
I am so proud of myself for not looking down on them for their affluence. In fact, I actually thought of all this while at my job, looking up stuff on my Kindle Fire, remembering that I should sync it to my home laptop...and I can do that tonight while watching my big tv, in a comfortable living room, eating a dinner that I just decided to go out and buy because the hundreds of dollars of food in my house are not what I want tonight...
Ever have a moment when you are looking through a window at the sorry souls with everything on earth and nothing in heaven...searching for God as they try to decide between possessions and faith, and you suddenly see you are looking in a mirror?
