Psalm 52:7
Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted
in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
Lee couldn't understand
any person who would put their faith in something you couldn't get your hands
on. Spirits and angels and super beings in the sky were all fantasy. Now,
money, there was something that was real. You could measure the benefits of money,
not like God. You never knew what you would come up with, With God. Till his
dying day, Lee believed that only fools followed God.
The wise man understands that the wealth of this age is
inferior to the wealth God grants us through eternal life in His Kingdom. Money
has its uses, but as a god it is a poor substitute for the real thing.
Prayer: Do not let me be distracted by lesser gods, O Lord.
There is nothing in this world that can take Your place. You are the greatest
riches I can ever hope to find. Amen
