Parents (and especially grandparents) are quick to pull out pictures of their children and grandchildren. There are reasons we do this. There is joy in looking at the latest video or picture. It delights our hearts like nothing else, and in our loving pride, we want others to know the beauty of our children too.
Our lives would be better if we spent more time each day gazing at Jesus.

We are enamored by wealth. Commercials promise it, television shows us the biggest homes and fanciest cars, and we are amazed. Wall street records the richest business tycoons. But we are using a false measure of wealth.
