Thought of the Day !!

I know about your suffering and your poverty - but you are rich! – Revelation 2:9a (NLT)

How often do we let money and/or "stuff" define how rich we are?  Do we look at people who have very little and think automatically that they are poor?  Do we believe that in these hard economic times we are poorer than we once were?

To be honest, money has nothing to do with how rich we are because true riches come from God and are stored in Heaven as well as given in this lifetime.  Riches are gifts given to us by God. 

Count your riches today and see just how wealthy you are?  Count your abilities, the beauty God has placed around you, the freedoms you have, the people in your life, the love God has for you, etc.  

As you count your riches (or blessings) today, may you see just how wealthy you are.

In the love of Christ,
