I once asked my Aunt, Dora Jane, who raised me as if she were my
mother where we stood on the spectrum between rich and poor.
I said, "I know we live well and have money, but we don't have
millions of dollars. What does that make us?"
She responded by saying, "I beg your pardon! We are rich,
we have always been rich and we will always be rich!"
I responded, "But Auntie, we don't have money like the Getty's?"
She interrupted me and said as she pointed to her heart,
and then to her head, "Rich is in here and up here.
You will always be rich in heart and mind.
If you have a lot of money that makes you wealthy.
If you have no money, that makes you broke.
You see, richness is a state of mind; not how much money you
have.
It does not matter how much you have that counts in life.
It's what you do with what you have than counts.
And so long as you remember that you will always be rich."
PRAYER
"Do not lay up for yourselves an earthly treasure. Instead make it your practice to store up heavenly treasure. And remember, where your treasure is, there also is your heart."
