015: Often Overlooked Riches

There are some things in this life that we desire more than others. People often desire such things as attention, fame, wealth and the accumulation of possessions.

Those all have a common factor: we can physically see them.

I submit that Christians tend to overlook the most valuable riches–the ones that are normally not seen or felt.

How often do we focus on fleeting riches, when all along we have Christ's power within us to live boldly and victoriously for Him.

The Riches of our Inheritance

"The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints." Eph. 1:18
