Why Do We Do What We Do?

Good Morning Christian Peeps! What is our why this morning? Why do we do what we do? I had a conversation with a friend this morning about how we work so hard and we are so stressed out and overwhelmed that we feel nothing of value is getting accomplished. So I said why? Why do we feel that way? Well the answer in short is that maybe we are too focused on the wrong things. How many of us spend so much time working for what? Material things? If we balanced our jobs better and our time ...if we worked less.... would we starve? Would we lose our homes? Or is it more likely that we couldn't afford the material things that we are so accustomed to? The Bible says if we gain the whole world and lose our soul what does it profit a man? I like to add to that and say if we work so hard that when it's time to retire we die....then what did we really do? Can we afford to sell our health for a little of wealth that is fleeting? Wealth that is here today but may be gone tomorrow? What is our why? It's time we put the important things first. It's time we find out what really matters in the big picture. I hope this stirs something in us today. Be Blessed!
