Being Broke

The other day I had a young lady decide to
follow me on social media which has been
going on a lot lately for a lot of people.

I don't mind being followed by anyone any

age as long as they don't message me. The 

problem is I am getting a lot of messages

from young ladies which I try to ignore for

the most part.

I found it interesting what she said on her

profile. She said how many friends would

you have if you tell that your broke. I am

not sure she is scamming or not however 

if she is then she is using reverse psychology.

What she said made me think. She is right

in our world today if you told people you

are broke you likely won't have as many

friends and the ones you do are valuable

because they don't care whether you have

much or not.

I have mentioned before about gifts and talents

that is where we can be rich in this world as

well as the next. We can give encouraging

words to people everything will be alright.

I thought about the young rich ruler in the

Gospels where he told Jesus he followed the

ten commandments. Jesus asked him to sell

all his possessions. The young rich ruler went

away as it said because he had great wealth.

I wonder if he knew the one he was talking to

would give him more than all the wealth he had

or ever have being more valuable than money

or gold or silver or whatever form he had his

riches in. 

We have to remember riches take a lot of 

responsibility and time. In the same manner

our gifts and talents can too. Something for

all of us to think about. Have a great weekend

and may it be a blessing to you.
