Some people think that fame is what really matters. Some think that money really matter. While others think that status is what matters. What about worrying what God thinks of you? Is that not what matters the most? People get so caught up in the ways of the world and try to fit in to what the world says "really matters", that they complete ignore the fact that the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away! Nobody would be where they are now if the Lord did not allow them to be there. People tend to worry about the wrong thing. I have to admit that I want the fame and the fortune BUT I also realize that if I am not doing what the Lord wants me to do and I am not pleasing the Lord, then I will never get the fame and fortune. If I do get it without pleasing the Lord, it will be taken away from me faster than it was given to me. The purpose of life is to worship and thank God for everything that HE gives us and we must be good stewards over the things that HE gives us if we want HIM to bless us with more. Try not to get so caught up in what the world says matters and get caught up with what God says REALLY MATTERS!
Romans 14:17-18
17-18 God's kingdom isn't a matter of what you put in your stomach, for goodness' sake. It's what God does with your life as he sets it right, puts it together, and completes it with joy. Your task is to single-mindedly serve Christ. Do that and you'll kill two birds with one stone: pleasing the God above you and proving your worth to the people around you.
