The idea of keeping up with the Jones’ has been in our culture forever. But having material things is not a measure of your love, or a measure of the blessings God has given us. This doesn’t mean we can’t have nice and fun things. It’s about what is in your heart. Is that “thing” a form of measurement in your life? That’s idolatry. That’s a sin. Turn your heart to God, don’t let possessions, be your measure. Give your heart and your mind to God, and he will bless you, and you will enjoy your possessions even more, because of Him.
