Remind me ,dear Lord. ( Luke 12 v 15 - 21 )

Leon Morris writes,''The values of God are not the values of men'', the fact is God is not like us,we value the things of time, while God is eternal ,His ways are not our ways,we are told there is a way that seems right unto a man,but its end leads to death.(Proverbs 14 v 12 ).Mankind lives for the here and now,the Christian is told to set their minds on things above,not on earthly things .( Colossians  3 v 2 ), we are if we are to progress, we must fix our sights on heaven.All the glories of this earth will fade and pass away, but the eternal glories will never fade or pass away (  i  Corinthians 9 v 25 ) We must not put to much emphasises on those things we possess,they are only loaned to us, the fact is we will leave all that we have one day.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              The things that I love and hold dear to my heart                                                                                        Are just borrowed, they're not mine at all;                                                                                                 Jesus only let me use them to brighten  my life ,                                                                                       So remind me, remind me dear Lord.                                                                                                                  ( Dottie Rambo)
