God Holds More Than Just Any Type of Answer
You can build yourself a squad to outshine the Dream Team, only to have your hopes dashed. We place a whole bunch of our hope on and emphasis in talent, but the real test will boil down to our relationship with God as our Provider.

17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. 18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.

As we end Financial Wellness Month within a matter of days, I would like you to consider conducting a financial wellness check on the status of your personal finances.
Honestly, money has value for the Christian just like anyone else. However, Christians must ensure to keep money in its proper perspective. Money can never truly satisfy your soul. Money is not the answer to all of your problems. More money is not the solution to everything in your life.

And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”. . .
Luke 23:34 (ESV)
They arrived at the place that they called The Skull.
In some translations, it is simply called Calvary. Yet, the name the Skull depicts a certain image of death looming in the air. It is also called Golgotha. It is also known, according to Britannica.com, as a “skull-shaped hill in ancient Jerusalem, the site of Jesus’ Crucifixion.”

“Read 500 pages every week. That’s how knowledge works. It builds up, like compound interest. All of you can do it, but I guarantee not many of you will do it.”
– Warren Buffet
Billionaire investor Warren Buffet said that many would not accept the challenge to read 500 pages per week. In fact, according to the previously mentioned quote by Buffet, he guaranteed that many would not read 500 pages per week.
Buffet did not say this because people lack the ability to read 500 pages per week. He said so because so many people are not willing to read 500 pages per week.
