After James 4:10-5:6
A fundamental question:
what do you do with
your wealth? What do
you do with all the Lord
has blessed you with?
Riches for the sake
of riches is chasing
after the wind. You
blink your eyes, and
your riches have rotted,
your clothes become rags,
your stocks have crashed,
your banks have closed,
your comfortable life
of indulgence have ended.
You’ve condemned and
defrauded the righteous
person. It is time for you
to weep and howl for
the miseries coming
upon you.
