This program has been made possible by the friends and

partners of Joyce Meyer Ministries.

Real life does not consist in our possessions.

It's found in having a right relationship with God and

instead of being selfish and always trying to get something

for yourself, it's in being a blessing to other people.

Well, welcome to Enjoying Everyday Life.

I am so glad you've joined us today and I believe that you're going to enjoy today's teaching.

You know, the Word of God is so powerful.

It's not like regular words and I started yesterday teaching about not wasting

things, not wasting the resources that God has given us.

After Jesus fed the five thousand, he said to gather up the fragments that nothing

be wasted.

And so God is not for waste.

He wants us to use what He gives us wisely.

And we all have resources, things like time, money, energy,

abilities, gifts and talents, or just life itself.

You know, I don't think there's anything sadder than to see somebody come to the end of their life.

And when they look back, all they have is regrets.

I think about my dad sometimes and my mom.

Of course, my dad sexually abused me while I was growing up.

And he just was a mean person.
