And the crowds asked him, ‘What then should we do?’ In reply he said to them, ‘Whoever has two coats must share with anyone who has none; and whoever has food must do likewise.’ Even tax-collectors came to be baptized, and they asked him, ‘Teacher, what should we do?’ He said to them, ‘Collect no more than the amount prescribed for you.’ Soldiers also asked him, ‘And we, what should we do?’ He said to them, ‘Do not extort money from anyone by threats or false accusation, and be satisfied with your wages.’ (Luke 3:10-14, NRSV)
Are you satisfied?
Do you think having more will make you happy?
Do you think that getting a bigger house, more money, a nicer car, a better job will make you any different?
There are people who see you and wish they could be you!
God has richly blessed each of us, in completely different ways. Be happy and satisfied with what you have, not always seeking something more…
Count your blessings and relax and enjoy life with what you got! For what you have is better than what you think you need!
