Craig, Thanks for once again helping us keep our focus and priorities in line. I too am rich, and I believe that God wants me to feel positive about my wealth. Following these five steps will honor God, keep me humble and (Step 1) never let me forget that God is my ultimate source. .-= Joe Plemon´s last blog ..Love and Money =-.

@Scott
Thanks for sharing your unique perspective. I think the key is for all of us is to ask God how we can use what WE have to honor God. That seems like a much better idea than thinking about how THEY should use what THEY have.

@Jason
I think your right about the importance of the source of our blessing. Just yesterday I was looking around my house and I though to myself – God has been so good to me. Then I realized that some people don’t credit God for what they have.

Good stuff Craig – Recognizing the source of our blessing is key and realizing we are not owners, but merely stewards helps us keep money from becoming ultimate.

Great post, Craig. As one who has spent 15 years working as a fundraiser for charity, I find I often have to defend the rich to others (particularly middle class folks who are often envious, therefore they judge). I have been so blessed to work with many of these people not only on their philanthropy with the organizations I have represented, but their lifestyle of helping people, organizations, opening their homes, etc. just as you described. We are all rich. It is just a matter of how many zeros we have at the end of the number. What do we EACH do with what we have been blessed?
