WHAT IS THE MEASURE OF YOUR WEALTH?

And He said unto them, Take head, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. Luke 12:15 In our world, people define success on the basis of the one's material acquisition. You are assessed on the basis of the number of houses and cars you own, the cloths you wear and the caliber of friends you have. The story of the rich man in the Bible Luke 12:13-21, The rich man had everything going well for him. He was a successful farmer. He was the envy of neighbours and colleagues. But God said he was a fool in Luke 12:20, Rich fool? Yes. Why? Because he had no place for God, no thought of eternity in all his plans.He was therefore a poor rich man in the sight of the Almighty. He made his wealth his god but it was not able to deliver him when death came knocking. The owner of His soul came at a time he never expected. He thought he had many more years to enjoy at a time he never expected. He thought he had many more years to enjoy life. What a fool. Act now and surrender your life to Jesus so that your name will not included in the list of fools forever. Tomorrow may be too late repent now.
