Good thoughts on perspective

I haven't been able to read all my normal blogs lately, but I did catch Pastor Furtick's this morning. Good stuff.

Keep perspective.

It seems sometimes prosperity is the worst thing for our spiritual condition. In our nightly Bible reading the kids and I just read about Solomon. Blessed with all of the wealth you could ever imagine, more wisdom than anyone else in the world, peace on every side, and if all that wasn't enough, the Lord appeared to Solomon TWICE and spoke with him. Yet Solomon didn't listen to what God had said about foreign wives. Solomon took 700 wives and 300 concubines who turned his heart away from God and had him build temples to all kinds of idols.

Keep perspective.
