Scripture: Mark 10:25
"It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
Observation: The story of the young rich man is an important lesson because so many people put their trust in money and they quickly loose sight of everything else.
Application: Jesus says that, "for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." It is not the other way around because he knows the human heart and the human heart is quick to follow the treasure. He knows that if we treasure material goods our heart will be on our worldly treasure instead of God.
Prayer: Lord help my treasure be you so that my heart will follow after you not the world. I know the temptations will be many and often but I pray that your love will draw me close so that when I stumble it will not be too far. Lord please forgive me for all of the sins I have committed and help me to learn form all of the mistakes I have made in my life.
