What If You Could Have It All ~ My Friend I Do...

I can't tell you how often I've heard that phrase over my 60 plus years of life.  To which I pondered - what is "having it ALL"?

I've seen people chase the material things only to find they don't fulfill - they don't satisfy - they're empty.

My mother often pressed upon me this phrase - "the true meaning of life".  It stuck.

Each of us may have a different definition of "the true meaning of life".  Mine's all about "that which money can't buy".  The love of God, the love of family, the love of friends, the love of a church family - the rest doesn't actually matter.

I always fall back on Micah 6:8 - "He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."

So when I look at people - I don't notice the clothes - I notice the face and the eyes. Are they smiling eyes or hurting eyes?

May we all act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with our God.
