A little or a lot?

Proverbs 15:16 “Better a little with the fear of the Lord than great wealth with turmoil.” Our human nature has a strong desire for excess in popularity, toys, looks, income, cars, real estate and anything else on this earth which seems to bring more pleasure than the other guy has.  All of these seeing pleasures can be blessings or they can be a curse.  What makes the difference?  Our relationship with our Heavenly Father.  When my or your bond with our God is strong all else is appreciated but not primary.  Praise God for your blessings but never let them rule you.
