Scripture
Ecclesiastes 5:10English Standard Version (ESV)
10 He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity.
Proverbs 14:21English Standard Version (ESV)
21 Whoever despises his neighbor is a sinner,
but blessed is he who is generous to the poor.
but blessed is he who is generous to the poor.
Observation
Chasing after material things won't make one happy It only causes one more stress and unhappiness.
Application
Be contented with your LOT and strive for the best. He has and will always provide for us. Remove negative thoughts, comparison, envy and other earthly perception of "wealth" from yourself.
Worshipers of $$ will never get the peace that only can be given by GOD.
Prayer
Dear LORD,
help me remind myself that it is not money that controls but you, GOD. Let me not envy others for the material goods/ status which are just temporary in this world.
AMEN.
