"A man who has riches without understanding is like the beasts that perish." Psalm 49:20
"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." Proverbs 9:10
It made me stop and think....am I rich without understanding? Maybe not in money, but there are certainly riches without $ value:
- Health
- Time
- Job
- Home
- Husband
- Close family
- Sound mind
- Friends
- Creativeness
- Piano/Music
- Growing plants
- Peacefulness
And if these are my riches... how am I using them? Do I have understanding? Do I ask God for wisdom on how to use these riches for His glory? Do I seek to know the Holy One so I can have understanding?
I have been so blessed...I just pray that I will be aware of what God HAS given me, thankful and wise, and generous enough to use them!
Have you "counted" your riches recently?
