Devotional Thought

It is very easy to get caught up in the pursuit of the almighty dollar. It is very easy to get in a race with the Jones. It is very easy to want the newest, the biggest, the fastest, and on and on. I have to constantly strive to seek what is really important in life and it is none of those things. I love this passage from Psalms that helps me remember that God will prosper His people with the things that are really important. "Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in his ways. You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours. Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house, your sons will be like love shoots around your table. Thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD. May the LORD bless your from Zion all the days of your life; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem, and may you live to see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel." Psalm 128
