Material goods promise fulfillment, happiness, and meaning. We work our lives away to acquire new cars, fashionable clothes, and expensive homes. They end up breaking their promises, tricking us, and leaving our souls unsatisfied. We expect the beautiful Rachel, but we're left with the weak-eyed Leah (Genesis 29).
Your desire indicates what you value. Thus, it should be pointed heavenward, towards the only One who truly satisfies. "Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal." Matthew 6:20.
Sabbath Shalom..
