Hey, friend, I see you're going after the shiny things in life, but let me tell you, those are just 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗽 𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵. You're investing your heart and soul in accumulating stuff that could vanish in a heartbeat. But what about the wealth that really counts?

As it says in 𝟭 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝟲:𝟲-𝟳, "𝑮𝒐𝒅𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒎𝒊𝒙𝒆𝒅 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒕𝒖𝒅𝒆 - 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕❜𝒔 𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒔. 𝑾𝒆 𝒅𝒊𝒅𝒏❜𝒕 𝒃𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒏𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒘𝒐𝒏❜𝒕 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒚 𝒂𝒏𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒐𝒖𝒕. 𝑺𝒐 𝒍𝒆𝒕❜𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒄𝒖𝒔 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝒈𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒔."

A truly rich person isn't measured by their bank account or possessions, but by their relationship with God and their contentment in Him.

Sure, it's fine to enjoy the blessings of life, but when they become the main event, we end up empty and unsatisfied. Real wealth is about knowing God, following Him, and finding joy and contentment in Him.

I'm not here to squash your dreams, but to refocus your attention on what really matters. You were made for so much more than accumulating stuff. You were made to know and love God, and to live a life that reflects His glory.

Let's not get caught up in chasing after things that will rust, fade, or get taken away. Let's zero in on the things that bring lasting joy and fulfillment. Let's get to know God better, follow Him more closely, and live a life that honors Him.

You don't want to end up with a life that's all about the leftovers, only to realize too late that you've missed out on the real treasure. Let's make sure we're focusing on what truly matters, friend. Let's go for the real wealth - the kind that comes from knowing God and living a life that pleases Him.
