You Can'T Buy God

you might no be rich or own a fancy car
you might live from hand to fist saving pennies in a jar
but the most important thing that you could ever possess
is to be an adopted child of God and for your testimony to progress

today's society is stuck on the basest of notions
that wealth and possessions deserve some type of devotion
yet you can't take it with you when your final hour comes
only the state of your soul and your salvation will determine 
if you are a blessed one

money can't buy God's favor 
and heaven does not hold out for the highest bidder
God only asks that you believe in Him 
and repent from being a sinner

so it does not matter all that much if you don't have great wealth
God won't give you too many burdens
all He wants is your happiness and health

just study on the Holy Scriptures
and trust in God to guide you
remember His Son Jesus was poor as well
but God always found a way to get Him through
