So i had a crazy idea..it actually came from a half sleep, half awake state of being the other morning, when I wasn't quite awake but I wasn't fully asleep. You know how your mind does crazy things when you are like that.
What if, every time we wanted to buy something we [had] to ask God, we had to fill out a purchase request stating why we needed to buy it, why we needed that particular size or quantity and He had to approve or deny the request.
I just wonder... would I most often be embarrassed to ask for something else, would i think about each purchase more with a different standard or measure?
It is said;
"God has all the money in the world"..true enough,
but here is the kicker! it is in the hands of a bunch of self consumed humans who think of ourselves far more than we ought and are blinded to the hold the world has on us through "our" money. I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt ,this will condemn us before God and we won't even see it coming.
Lord, have mercy on our souls

Thank you, Lori, for these thoughts. You would probably be interested in reading the poem on Tyler's blog that his sister wrote - it reminded me of you! Take care! Marsha
