Seems everyone is trying to “get the bag”, and that’s understandable. We all have bills and costly desires. However to be spiritually bankrupt is far worse than to be money bankrupt.
We want to get in our bag and stay in our bag. But when it comes to getting spiritual we grimace and look over to see if anyone is looking before we talk and walk about our spiritual health. We’re worried about who’s judging us for talking about Jesus or our own spiritual processes.
(Most) Humans will human, especially on the internet where everyone’s got a view and a tone….they will look for holes in your life before they make their life whole. They will use various scriptures to deny God, and use your shortcomings to deny you, or get you to deny yourself and God. They create criteria of what spirituality should look or feel like.
But will you stand strong and push forward, knowing that when you lay down to rest, your heart is agreeable with your spiritual bank account? Are you awake when you should be asleep? Thinking thinking thinking of ways to get the bag, to get over regrets, to get troubles off your mind?
It costs nothing but heart with a sprinkle of service on top of a pound of compassion to be spiritually abundant, yet people give their every ounce of physical and mental to get the bag.
In standing by the bed of people who are transitioning, I’ve never heard anyone say ,
“I wish I got more money.” However I’ve heard some tell the air or family members that they wish they had more time to get to know God.
And I’m not out here selling religion or you’d pay to read this post. But just think about that…think about….
“Am I chasing grace as much as I’m chasing green without the force of regret and threat of looming death?
Get in your bag and stay in your grace.
