Another Perspective

No blame game here, but, we're hit with thousands of adds a day telling us we need stuff. According to daily marketing, you can never have enough, right?

Ecclesiastes 5:10-11 (New Living Translation)

10 Those who love money will never have enough. How meaningless to think that wealth brings true happiness! 11 The more you have, the more people come to help you spend it. So what good is wealth--except perhaps to watch it slip through your fingers!

1 Timothy 6:6-8 (NLT)

6 Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. 7 After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can't take anything with us when we leave it. 8 So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content.

Philippians 4:11 (NLT)

11 Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have.

Just a little perspective.
