POSSESSIONS…
What is your most prized possession?
Your car?
Your house?
An instrument you’ve scrimped and saved for, for so long you wondered whether or not you would ever be able to afford it?
That big-screen TV?
That stereo system? That computer? That ipad or iphone?
What about a pet? Is that considered a “possession” to you?
How did you feel after you acquired that prized possession? Did the possessing of it complete your life, like you thought it would? Or were you “let down” now that you had it in hand?
My brother, Bill, wrote about a woman who desired something – something she considered more than life itself:
In acquiring those prized possessions, if we consider how that possession can be used to God’s glory, then we can use it – “give it back to God” – and know that we have fulfilled God’s desire for us in that instance. We can give God the opportunity to bless us with our use of the possession.
The “essence” of this thought is that, what God gives still belongs to Him – to be used for His glory.
I had never thought about my possessions in that light. God really DOES want to give us the best, and to bless us with it.
WOW!
