James 5:1-6
Today's Scripture
Everything we have is a gift from God. My family, the home I enjoy, food, furnishings, books, computers--all are because God has blessed us. I pray I will not become callous to the needs of others when I have so much. James doesn't have very kind words for those of wealth who cheat or disregard the needs of others.
Someday all that we enjoy will be gone--only what is eternal will last. Let's spend our time investing in others--for their souls are what will go into eternity. And let's be grateful for the things we have been given and use every opportunity to be generous.
