FROM TODAY'S READING (8/8/2014)...
God won't ask what kind of car you drove, but will ask how many people you drove home who didn't have transportation.
God won't ask how much overtime you worked, but will ask if you worked overtime for your family and loved ones.
God won't ask what you did to help yourself, but will ask what you did to help others.
God won't ask how many friends you had, but will ask how many people to whom you were a true friend.
God won't ask what you did to protect your rights, but will ask what you did to protect the rights of others
God won't ask how many times your deeds matched your words, but will ask how many times they didn't.
1 Timothy 6:17-19 (NLT) Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment. Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others. By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life.
