I was thinking about ...I actually think your right. I was thinking about it a good bit too while reading through Ecclesiastes this morning. And it says that if God blessed, enjoy it. But of course that's said in a way of understanding that God really did bless you and that it can be all gone in a moment. So I guess that's what I'm going to work on. Really evaluating my choices as living in Gods grace while still being conscious of the fact that its Gods not mine.

Here's what I think after thinking and praying about it: Ask yourself "Is this degree of materialism hurting my relationship with Christ? Is it causing me to be participating in idolatry?" If the answer is "Yes" then it is the sin of materialism. If not, enjoy what God has blessed you with! Make sense?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
