We spend our days, sunrise to sundown, focused on all that we have, all that we do, all those we love, all things we want. And what if we had none of those things? Would we become angry at G-D? Job's experience could happen to any of us at any time. Holding fast to all that we think we have here, and making it a daily priority, makes it clear that we do not put our love for our Creator first. He wants the best of our offerings, yet we give Him our attention after we've attended to everything else (see Malachi 1). What if everything we had was completely stripped from us? What if our homes, our closet full of clothes and shoes, all of our family members, our careers, our health, literally everything was gone...what then? Choose this day who you will serve. Choose wisely. Store up your riches in heaven. Everything here will pass away.
