Next to Impossible

In this life it can be easy for us to become too focused on material things. We are warned about this in the Bible many times.

It is said you can’t love both God and money. It’s impossible. Then we are told in the Ten Commandments not to have any other gods before Him. If our priorities are out of wack and our daily routines consistently eliminate the importance of God in our lives then we need to do some reassessing.

The Bible is also clear that it is almost impossible for those who follow after material wealth to get into heaven. It says it’s easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for the wealthy to go to heaven.

Don’t get all of this wrong. God doesn’t mean it’s wrong to live comfortably. He just means we are to trust in Him more than in our next paycheck or in the things around us we turn to for comfort.

All of these things will one day pass away and all that’ll be left is Jesus. Take a moment in prayer today and ask God to help you examine your heart. Are you holding too tightly to the things of this world instead of to Jesus?
