Tater: It simply makes us who we are, most people born with a silver spoon in their mouth, grow up niave of how the world works... It has never really bother me being poor, I've never been homeless, I look at it like this....
The more you have , the more you want and you become less "grounded" sort of speak, with wealth comes greed, GOD doesn't want us to be worldly people, that is why 99% of the rich will not make it there, because they had learned to covet worldy things over his laws....When everything is going great in your life and you can have anything you want, you start to feel you don't need GOD....
there will alway be someone richer, poorer stronger, weaker, etc etc... then you..
Accept the things you cannot change and try and change the things you can....To make your life what you want it to be...
I know it seems, life isn't fair sometimes, but thats because it was not meant to be.... most good people will lose at life, but the reward will be everlasting.. JMO
we dont agree on some things but i so appreciate that you are a believer
