The mansion stood desolate, its finishing pointing to the finesse of an urbane owner who had seen the world, had loads of cash, and knew exactly what he needed to showcase. His environment also had many others who reproduced their fancies – with cars, each of which cost enough to build houses. But today, the quality of the structures held no attraction to those in a race to just stay alive. Within, were customised fittings, accessories and designer clothes that had no user for weeks. In this season, fashion sense, dictated the wearing of just one t-shirt – for nearly a week.

“And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” –  Luke 12:15 (King James Bible)

 Wasted labour is physical pain; not knowing God is eternal regret

Let the Son shine in your heart daily.
