When Money Is Not Enough

(Singing) ..."Money, Money, Money, Money, Money,Money, MONEY! - Some people got to have it, some people really need it. Do things, do things, do things, do bad things with it.  For the love of money!!!

Whew!  I really like that song!!  The O'Jays -- "For the Love of Money" is timeless and tugs at the fiber of nearly everyone's being.  (Personally, it's the funky beat that gets me going.)   

Having money is fine, but what happens when it runs out? 

Over the last eight weeks, we've been discussing how to live more healthy and wealthy.  During this time, we've seen the stock market literally crash at least two times in the last two weeks.  Every where I go -- especially at work - that's all people are talking about - MONEY, MONEY, MONEY!!  Investment this, retirement that, 401K, IRA, ARGH!!  No one seems happy unless they are stressing about money!  When will the madness stop?!!!

I know money is necessary to function in the world.  But it should not be your main concern.  Are you healthy?  Are you happy?  Are you doing what you can to help others be healthy and happy?  Most importantly, are you working on having the best relationship you can with God?

If you can't answer YES to all of these questions - then you must be like many of the people in your life - too focused on money and not on what really matters.

You'll never reach true wealth or optimal health until you get your life back on the right track.  Start today by asking God for help.  He cares for you - and so do I.

Have a blessed and prosperous day!
