Proverbs 15:16

Fortunesays that to be successful you need to make the big bucks.

Why else would the Fortune 500 list make such headlines every year? Anyone who is held up as successful must have more money than the average person.

Understand, there is nothing wrong with money earned honestly.

Certainly there is nothing wrong in investing or giving or even spending money if the motive is right, if the heart is pure. But I have yet to discover anyone who has found true happiness simply in the gathering of more money.

Although money is not sinful or suspect in itself, it is not what brings lasting contentment, fulfilment, or satisfaction.
