We’ve all heard the phrase “You can’t take it with you.” It’s a phrase that can often have us picturing a gravesite filled to the brim with random clothes, outdated cell phones, and maybe a fancy electronic or two. We can laugh at that image and think to ourselves, “That could never be me.” But take a second to look around you, especially if you’re at home as you read this. Mentally catalog all the items you see—things like home décor, books, even furniture. On their own, they may not look like much, but when we all start to count each thing we own, the number may be higher than we would want to believe.
This isn’t to say that owning anything is bad! Instead, taking the time to be honest with just how much you have is the first step to avoiding a life where we all buy things that we really don’t need. It’s a chance to remind yourself that we aren’t missing out when we’re not buying the next new “it” sweater or buying craft supplies we know we may never use. But we already have everything we need when we dedicate our lives to Jesus. So the next time you’re eligible for the next version of your phone, maybe take a minute to see if you really need it. Or be honest with yourself about just how much you’d use that fancy new workout machine that’s become the new must-own trend.
