We should never let material things get ahead of God or become so important in our lives that we can't walk away from them if He tells us to. Anything you own that has a hold on you is a problem.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I really believe that God puts things in front of you for a reason, even if you don't always appreciate it in the moment.
God will give us the strength to be able to handle things. I mean, you can try to do it on your own, and sometimes you can pull off some stuff, but in the long run, it's much easier with Him by our side.
Let's be cautious about relying so much on material things that we have no energy left for the spiritual aspects of our lives.
I am a firm believer that God has already ordered the things that have taken place in my life... and I'm just learning to follow the path he's laid before me.
I am convinced that material things can contribute a lot to making one's life pleasant, but, basically, if you do not have very good friends and relatives who matter to you, life will be really empty and sad and material things cease to be important.
Everything for me is sacred, beginning with earth, but also going to things made by man.
Most of what we take as being important is not material, whether it's music or feelings or love. They're things we can't really see or touch. They're not material, but they're vitally important to us.
At the end of day, what matters most to God, what moves His heart, isn't our fancy words and impressive possessions - it's the condition of our hearts.
I think when you're dealing with faith, you want to be as responsible and sensitive to the material as you can.
You know, I feel that God isn't going to put something in front of me that I can't deal with.
