This too is vanity.

Ecclesiastes 5:10-15, He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves abundance with its income. This too is vanity. When good things increase, those who consume them increase. So what is the advantage to their owners except to look on? The sleep of the working man is pleasant, whether he eats little or much. But the full stomach of the rich man does not allow him to sleep. There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun: riches being hoarded by their owner to his hurt. When those riches were lost through a bad investment and he had fathered a son, then there was nothing to support him. As he had come naked from his mother’s womb, so will he return as he came. He will take nothing from the fruit of his labor that he can carry in his hand.

All that we have comes from God, He asks us to be good stewards. In that way He brings us opportunities to help others in many ways, and He also enables us to enjoy what He has given us. We are blessed in so many ways in this country; how can we use our blessings to bring a blessing to others?

Help me to keep things in perspective, to use wisely what You give me, Lord.
