Rich & Poverty

When I read the Bible,
I am always amazed at how the followers of Christ would just leave behind what they have and follow Jesus.
They left their families, their jobs.
Without any question, without any doubt,
When they know that He is the Messiah,
They followed Him.
They know they have nothing to lose,
They know that the things they have on earth is just temporary.

When I look at my life,
I see how I have been holding on to the world.
I have so much,
But I always wants it better, want more.

In Mark 10:21-22,
The rich young man have difficulties in leaving his riches behind.
In the end, instead of following Jesus, he walked away.

This got me thinking,
How much I am going to miss out,
When I hold on to worldly treasures instead of keeping my eyes in eternal.

How marvelous , how boundless is Your love.
