Divine guidance for the rich and poor alike

Rich people:
Give to the poor or your riches will canker your soul.

Poor people:
Labor with your own hands, don’t lay hold on other people’s goods.

Both rich and poor:
Be satisfied, be pure in your desires, avoid greed, and you will have the “fatness of the earth”.

A man here in Houston was the CEO of a large marketing firm. One of his clients was Michael Jordan and he has pictures and a nice chair Michael gave him. He had a limo take him to work each day. He was rolling in money, wealth, and prestige.

Now he is destitute and has very little. What happened? He says that because he set his heart on the money and was prideful he lost it all.

Something to keep in mind.
