Surely a man goes about as a shadow! Surely for nothing they are in turmoil; man heaps up wealth and does not know who will gather! Psalm 39:6
I see the devastation
prosperity brings;
nice property and
the tyranny of things.
The untold suffering
of broken lives
is not relieved
with what money buys.
Yet I cravenly worship
gold, silver and gems;
forget The Lord and
turn against Him.
Bigger barns and fat accounts
might bring false confidence.
But there is a God
to Whom I answer in the end.
Wealth is an illusion
despite its glittering show.
What does a person gain
to have the world and lose his soul?
