Who in the world can truthfully say, “MINE”?

And for how long?

I never thought about it that way before.

“I can trust God to take care of the stuff that belongs to Him—fair enough.  But the stuff that belongs to me is my responsibility.  I have to work to get it.  I have to think about where to put it.  I have to use energy taking care of it.  I have to spend money insuring it.”

When God says, “The cattle on a thousand hills are mine,” we think that’s great because He has the resources to meet our needs (and wants, if we handle things just right).  But what if He is saying that all the cattle on my hill are His?

What if nothing is MINE?

Actually, one thing is mine—same as it was for Adam and Eve.

FREE WILL, with consequences.

God does not override our free will, nor does He override the consequences of our choices.

This includes our free will choice to claim anything as “MINE.”

If you want to know about the consequences, read His Book on money, wealth, and wishes.

It’s loaded, and He has the final word, and . . .

IT IS ALL HIS!
