Subject: High standard of living? |
Bible Note: RR144: I found a sing shop on the net, and saw a sign that said "LIVE SIMPLY". I cpoied it and pasted it in the front of my Bible. This serves a reminder to me as the better wat to contentment. There is always pressure to live "better" and that I "desreve the best" or that "I'ver earned it" or the most frequent "why not own the best for less than you think". We all are subjected to the idea life is incomplete without "things". This reminds me of the saying "We ate to love people, and use things, not to love things and use people". How many of our things we think are required tust to live are really just that? Having been in a couple of third world countries where people have almost NOTHING, I consider myself to be rich in comparison. Just something to consider next time I get the "I got to have it blues".
