I Peter 1: 24-25 "All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord stands forever."
ok so whats pretty cool here is that Peter is quoting Isaiah.but anyway Its just a reminder that everything here on earth...my job, my clothes, the car i may have...everything is exactly what they are called; earthly possessions. none of it will be taken to heaven with us. It can be so easy to get caught up in what we have, and sometimes not even realize it. Grasping on temporary things is a waste, we should rather be focusing our time, energy, and even the money we earn on God. Everything we have is His in the first place, and He can take it away from us at anytime. i know that i would probably need an little but of adjusting if my things got taken away. I'm going to work on being a little more grateful than i have been in the past few months. Gratitude is just a part of our testimony and how we reflect on God, but its just as important as every other part.
ps. I had to get a loan but im all paid for and ready to start my next semester at Liberty! something ive been praying about and God worked it out for me : ) an answer to prayer.
