MONEY and SUCCESS

Dave Ramsey said "Your priorities, passions, goals and fears are shown clearly in the flow of your money".Our society has measured our success by how much money we make and how many material things we own.As a stay at home mom i guess I'm considered poor! But that's not my  point.This line comes from a favorite song of mine "maybe our success is measured best by nothing less than our obedience"How different would our lives be if that was our way of thinking.I want to teach my children that they have to work hard for their money but its God's money, on loan for us to use for HIS kingdom.We need to seek God's wisdom in how we spend our money.God doesn't care about money or possessions.He cares about people.Philippians 2:5 says "Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus".So if Jesus loved people more than money, don't you think we should have that same attitude.Many of you will look at that statement and think its absurd to love money more than people,but look at your priorities, passions, goals and fears and see which category you fall in.What is it that you are wanting to do today tomorrow and the rest of the time we have here on earth.Is it about you and your "success' or is it about others.
