Can You Take That With You

Good morning! Sunday blog! Money can be the root of a lot of evil and trouble! Let me say, right up front! No jealousy, no condemnation! I am not swayed by any of it! It’s wonderful to be blessed with wonderful things! Necessary things, that we all need! Trouble can come, if you try to keep up with neighbors or family! Believe me, I am no scholar where money is concerned and the troubles it can bring! I believed Denny and I would remain in our city home until we were both gone! When we realized it, full support from our children, it became a little easier! But packing 40 years of stuff, was massive! As positive as I was, I was not prepared for the amount of tears I shed! Even now, as I type, tears are coming! I really had to fight feelings of being a failure! One circumstance after another said repeatedly, it’s time to go! Still had to jump the hurdle of letting go! Everything I looked at had a meaning of some sort! I have come a good distance from that day! One can get lost in money and wanting to keep all of your things first in life! Nothing in this house or Denny’s or my life is more important than our relationship with God! The giver of all things! Let’s not forget, He is also the taker of all things! That’s pretty evident of everything going on in this world! It can burn up or float away! God is still God! He holds all of us in His hands! Even when we don’t want it! No matter what you have, no matter anything, our caskets will all be the same size! In the grand scheme of things, God is first, and taking care of Denny, making sure all of his needs are being met, “things” are the least of my worries! I am just putting it out there! Nothing material is more important than a persons feelings and whatever they are going through! Really, none of us knows another’s heart or struggles! As always, food for thought! Have a beautiful Sunday! God bless!❤️🤗🤗❤️
