Positive Thoughts For The Day

Many people would think about wealth and make a connection to financial wealth but true wealth go deeper than just financial wealth.

There are a few key points that I would like to use for you to measure how wealthy you are at this point in time.

I would like you to draw on a piece of paper a vertical line and link a horizontal line at the bottom of the vertical line. What we are going to do is draw a graph.

Number the vertical line from 1-10 and at the horizontal line we are going to write the following points.

1. Spiritual Health

2. Time To Spend With Family

3. Vacation

4. Finances

5. Self Development

6. Time To Do The Things That You Want

7. Physical Health

After reading each section, make a dot in-line with the number about the point that you have read about on the horizontal line to see if you would have a horizontal line parallel to the bottom line. This is ideally what your wealth indicator should indicate but few or nobody has that result.

If you rate yourself with regard to these few points on a scale of 1-10 for each point, I am sure that there are one or more in which you are not on level ten.

Those points that are not on level 10 are the areas in your life that you need to work on to be truly wealthy.

1. Spiritual Health

Maybe some people lack in spiritual wealth and development due to time availability to attend church or bible study classes or church fellowship.

It could be a lack of time to be able to break away from the busy work (job) and life concerns that become a stumbling block in our path to enlightenment in the more important part of being on this planet of ours and to be able to go on a retreat for a couple of days to reflect on your life and to connect with God to be able to grow that much closer to God as a spiritual being.

We forget that everything that we do in our busy lives to chase after more money or worry about health and finances and the work that we do is all keeping us from the most important purpose on this planet that we should be focusing on. You should Love God with you whole heart, with your soul and love your neighbor as you love yourself.

We loose focus of this that is the most important factor that we should be on level 10 but so many lack in this area. That is why there is so much hatred and destruction in the world today. King Solomon says that everything under the son is chasing after air “wind”. One thing remains:”Fear God and do what He commands.”

That is what is important, to stay in Gods Love by doing as He teaches us through Jesus Christ. Nothing is of greater importants than that. Paul says in the bible that for him his life is Christ and to die is profitable. That means that while living he will endeavor to live in the teachings of Christ and to preach to people the Word of God to show them the Light and the Way to righteousness to forgiveness through Christ to everlasting life and when he has come to the end of his life on earth, also go into everlasting Life in the Kingdom of God.

Now choose your level above where you have written Spiritual Wealth from 1- 10.

2. Time To Spend With Family

How many people miss out on time spend with family due to lack of time availability? They miss out on the children’s childhood years because they have to be sitting behind a desk in an office or do hard labor work for just enough money to get through the month and miss out on sharing precious time as a family doing things together at home or going on those family bonding camping trips.

People miss out to be able to attend that very important match that would take place at school that mean so much to the child to see that his parents are there to support him or her that what he or she does is important to them and that they care about him or her and their achievements or interests that is important to them.

The little things are what count a lot, the little things that you do sometimes out weigh the things that you say. Not saying I love you does not mean that you do not love someone. Showing that you love someone with your actions of love toward the person is what count. Being grateful, saying thank you, giving a hug, doing things together as a family. If more people would just do these simple things the world would be a very different place.

How about having the time to help with projects for school or to be able to have the time to just have fun together instead of being exhausted from the 9 to 5 job and basically live past one an other in the rush of life as many people experience today.
