Can you buy auto insurance that stops the drunk driver, and your own mistakes on the road?<\/p>\n
Can you buy home insurance that puts out a house fire?<\/p>\n
Can you buy health insurance that prevents cancer?<\/p>\n
Can you buy travel insurance that keeps the plane in the air?<\/p>\n
Can you buy crop insurance that makes it rain—or stop raining?<\/p>\n
Can you buy insurance that makes good neighbors?<\/p>\n
Can you buy marriage insurance?<\/p>\n
Can you buy children insurance?<\/p>\n
Can you buy life insurance that keeps you alive?<\/p>\n
Can you buy life insurance for after you die?<\/p>\n
Can you buy success?<\/p>\n
Can you buy happiness?<\/p>\n
Can you buy love?<\/p>\n
Isn’t living worth more than making more money?*<\/p>\n
Isn’t living worth more than all the stuff you buy with that money?*<\/p>\n
Isn’t giving more worth more than getting more?*<\/p>\n
Isn’t God’s reward for your unseen giving to help people you know—isn’t that worth more than impressing one person with your stuff?*<\/p>\n
*Jesus said that.<\/p>\n
How many struggling people do you know that you could help with the money you spend just protecting and maintaining your stuff?<\/p>\n
How many more struggling people do you know that you could help if you started giving away everything you don’t need?<\/p>\n
What if the clouds looming on the horizon become reality, and you lose all your stuff, and the investments and insurance are worthless?<\/p>\n
Someday, will you say, “I wish I had given it away to help people.”?<\/p>\n
What will you say to Jesus, and what will He say to you, about your stuff beyond your needs, and about the needs of others around you?<\/p>\n
