My Soul To Keep

For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

Never has there been a time like this, when dollars have dictated so many lives. Almost everywhere we go and everybody we see, in some form or fashion, the subject of money pops up. Even if not directly stated, it's indirectly or casually related.

From all indications, the money chase is driving many of us half-crazy. It is heartbreaking to withness countless individuals from various walks of life who are selling their souls, trying to gain a dollar.

Perhaps, we who are called by God's name should take out time and examine ourselves. We say we have hidden God's Word in our hearts, but the evidence of our financial lifestyles doesn't line up with the fundamentals of God's Word.

Money is one of the greatest stress-inducers in the world. Honestly, who, among us, is not needing more money here and more money there? And as long as we encounter one money issue after the other, we don't stand a chance of controlling our stresses.

Praise God, He gives hope! Pray about money matters and be open to God's guidance and His prescription for handling stressful finances.

"With God all things are possible." Surely, this includes money matters. Determine to apply God's Word to financial battles and reduce stresses.


Peace I leave with you . . .
