Aloha ProCon!

Our weather has changed from rainy back to sunny and fair.....and I like it to stay that way until my new Jeep side panels are delivered.

The only thing I found out is the cost of the replacements.... nothing prosecutable will come of it which is pretty much the way it is for break ins of vehicles.

A Matter Of Perspective
March 15, 2011

One of my favorite stories is about the Texas rancher who was doing agricultural consulting for a farmer in Germany. He asked the German farmer about the size of his property, to which he replied, “About a mile square.” When the German asked the Texan about the size of his ranch, the rancher explained that if he got in his pick-up truck at dawn and drove until sunset he would still be on his ranch. Not to be outdone, the farmer replied, “I used to have an old truck like that!”

All joking aside, it’s important to have the right perspective. Unfortunately, the Christians in Laodicea had the wrong perspective about wealth (Rev. 3:14-22). By all appearances, they were rich. They had plenty of earthly goods and thought they needed nothing—not even Jesus. But Jesus had a different perspective. In spite of their material prosperity, He saw that they were “wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked” (v.17). So He invited them to become truly rich by seeking what only He could provide: purity, character, righteousness, and wisdom.

Let’s not make the Laodicean mistake. Instead, let’s keep our perspective right about what it means to be rich. True wealth is not measured by what you have but by who you are in Christ.

In Christ we’re rich beyond belief
With wealth the world cannot see;
We have new strength and character,
New righteousness and purity. —Sper

The poorest person is he whose only wealth is money.

Read: Revelation 3:14-22

[You] do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked. —Revelation 3:17

Bible in a year:
Deuteronomy 26-27; Mark 14:27-53
