The Sacrifice that Hinders

"Sometimes I wonder if all the purchases we make throughout life begin to add up against us in ways we don't fully comprehend.

We purchase.
We collect.
We organize.

And while we believe we can successfully manage all of our possessions without intrusion into our lives, I wonder if we've actually sacrificed far more than we realize."

What Do You Truly Care About?

"Each time we make a purchase, decide on an investment, or give a donation, we communicate what we treasure – what we truly care about.” ~ Doug Carter (Raising More than Money, 2007, p. 8)

19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.~Matthew 6:19-21 (NIV 1984)
