God is the only perfect being thus He is characterized, among other things, by the absence of needs! Man being imperfect has many wants thus if Man wishes to approach God * must first minimize the plethora of his wants! © Demetrios Trifiatis 03 APRIL 2020 * "Be thou perfect as thy father in heaven is perfect." Matthew 5:48

In order to understand the point go to Matthew 5:48

It is debatable.. What I tried to convey is if HE is omniscient, then HE knows our mind, whether it is greedy or worthy.. I think I totally lost your point..lol..

Certainly you have missed the point! Do you mean that HE knows our needs for a Lamborghini, a villa on the beach and of our vacations on exotic islands? Man has created unnecessary needs. Take care dearest Jenish! Thank you for the visit! Hugs xxx

Wise words, we all like nice things and we sometimes forget how insignificant these things are. It takes dark times for people to realise that having a fancy car or a mansion doesnt really mean much. What matters is your faith in God and love for family and friends. Stay safe. Tom

Thank you for your precious visit and comment. Yes, we should minimize our needs and try to put emphasis on the spiritual man. This is my point as well my friend . Take care and blessings!
