James Dobson
I’m in the process of moving as I write this devotional, and let’s just say I can’t wait to complete the task! A great friend of mine emailed me a quote by James Dobson that says the following:
"I have concluded that the accumulation of wealth, even if I could achieve it, is an insufficient reason for living.
When I reach the end of my days... a moment or two from now, I must look backward on something more meaningful than the pursuit of houses and land and machines and stocks and bonds. Nor is fame of any lasting benefit.
I will consider my earthly existence to have been wasted unless I can recall a loving family, a consistent investment in the lives of people, and an earnest attempt to serve the God who made me.
Nothing else makes much sense.”
Through this entire moving experience, it can be very easy to get wrapped up in the grind of buy this, pay for that, move this, etcetera. At the end of the day, I pray God will bless every home, and may they be used to glorify our maker in every way possible!
God Bless!
