Guarding Oneself Against Covetousness

Life brings us many temptations but God has His remedy warning take care listen well to His counsel so clear to ignore them shows a mind so bare The Lord God Himself loves us so much showing His care saying be on your guard against all covetousness that threatens our life invading our heart seeking to be starred Our life does not satisfy in things for possessions are fleeting and vain the Lord God Himself is forever real being the rock from the rain Satisfaction comes only from our living bread feeding in Christ the satisfier of our soul He's the one that gives true nourishment having atoned for our sins made us whole This is life abundant spiritually renewed being separated from all that's earthly living unto the Lord Jesus as our king for Jesus, we worship for He is worthy (And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”) Luke 12: 15 (ESV)
