Should we be content or should we want more?

I personally think the reason our country is in the shape it’s in is because of greed. My neighbor is from Viet Nam, and had gone without all his life until about 22 years of age. He said he came to the United States and could not believe the greed in this country. Greed is one of the biggest reasons for credit report problems currently. If you covet what someone else has instead of being content with what you have you might find yourself filing bankruptcy or in debt up to your ears. I am not trying to preach but GOD says to be happy with what you have. I personally believe if our country does not change things soon we will end up like the Romans. They were one of the most powerful dynasty’s ever, but there greed and lack of GOD brought them to an end.

If you just get what you need instead of trying to get more and more you will find that happiness with surround you. Once you are in debt its like a dark cloud over your head. There is nothing wrong with being ambitious but remember to be thankful for what you have. I know this is a great lesson for all of us, including me. The United States compared to other countries is extremely rich. Do we really need a million dollar home, or is that just showing off. Do we really need a Lexus, or is that just being flashy. Do we really need a Rolex, or is that being gaudy. These are some good questions to ask yourself. Sometimes we need to stop look around and discover how fortunate we really are. I honestly believe this would stop all the credit issues in this country. Once we are old and gray we will not take anything with us anyways.

Whether your credit is suffering or you have found yourself in debt. It happens to good people, but if we learn anything out of this mess “Be Thankful for what you have.” Alos make sure you don’t make the same mistake twice. If GOD blesses you will wealth and lots of stuff make sure you bless other people as well. Because just as quick as you received wealth you can loose it in snap of a finger.
