Be rich with Lord God, not in the Earth!
An young man was the forerunner broker in today's increasingly popular "stock market" business. He was always thinking of investing in the company or factory in which the "stock price" will go up!
After the 5-days fasting, the "Jin" spirit asked him, "What is your wish? I will give it." Without hesitation, he said, "now itself, if I know the stock market situation for the next year, I can invest my money in a profitable company! So, show me the news paper with the stock market situation after one year.” The 'Jin' showed him the news paper he asked for!
The young man turned the page of the "stock market situation" with an indescribable joy! The next year, he found the lucrative stock company and was delighted to "invest all his money in that company." But coincidentally he found his photo opposite to the same page! Underneath the photo, he was shocked to find out that his name had been published on the same day that he had "passed away" in a motor vehicle accident! "What? Should I die in a car accident next year? What will I do?" He lamented.
Immediately 'Jin' asked, "Answer without delay. What is your first wish?" "Do you want your body to die? Are you going to seek the riches of your soul forever?" He asked for his riches for the soil.....he died and gone into the soil!!

This young man vanished as Jesus had said to a rich man who had set his mind on the riches: "You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?" (Luke12: 20,21) Young man ....is it good to live like this foolish young man? Make a firm decision to break free from the illusion and dedicate yourself to the life of seeking God today itself!!
Prayer:
Dear Father! Help us to become rich in godly devotion with you, so that our minds do not get caught in the illusion of the soil! In the name of the Lord Jesus, Amen.
