TRUTH: Only God can bring lasting happiness, not money

If you love money…

1. You’ll never have enough
Ecclesiastes 5:10 :: He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity.

2. You’ll always be worried about losing it
Ecclesiastes 5:11 :: When goods increase, they increase who eat them, and what advantage has their owner but to see them with his eyes?

3. Your sense of “need” v. “want” will be clouded
Ecclesiastes 5:12 :: Sweet is the sleep of a laborer, whether he eats little or much, but the full stomach of the rich will not let him sleep.

4. You spend your life loving something that is temporary
Ecclesiastes 5:15 :: As he came from his mother’s womb he shall go again, naked as he came, and shall take nothing for his toil that he may carry away in his hand.
