Psalm 119:35-36 NIV 35. Direct me in the path of your commands, for there I find delight. 36 Turn my heart toward your statutes and not toward selfish gain. The Bible teaches that a person is more than just a body - each of us is actually a living soul!! And our souls are created in the image of God. GodHimself has implanted His own nature within us! In our world, we give most of our attention to satisfying the appetites of the body and practically no attention to the soul. Consequently we are one-sided. We become fat physically and materially, but spiritually we are lean, weak and anemic. Today people most often covet financial gain. Money represents power, influence and success. For many people, money is a god. They think about little else. Yes, money can buy certain comforts and offer some security, but far more valuable than wealth is obedience to God! We should do what God wants, regardless of the financial implications. Lord, as I approach Your throne this morning, please help me to look for heavenly treasures rather than earthly gain!! Please help me keep my eyes and heart toward your statutes and not toward the gain of money!! Thank You for a beautiful day that You hath made!!! Amen
