In 1975, six armed gunmen broke into the deposit boxes in a London bank and stole valuables worth more than seven million dollars. One lady, whose jewelry was appraised at $500,000, cried, "Everything I had was in there. My whole life was in that box." What a sad commentary on her values! And yet, wouldn’t you agree that describes a great number of people today? They think life is found in their stuff! It’s time to ask ourselves if our priorities are straight! It’s no secret that materialism is a real problem in our day, but it is possible to find peace and contentment in the midst of the storm.
If you have ever asked the question, "What is God's will for my life?" then you understand the most profound challenge facing believers today. But is it that difficult to understand?
Learn how God accomplishes his sacred purposes through seemingly ordinary means and what it takes on our part to truly understand what God's will is for our lives.
