More isn’t enough!

     If we look at where most of the worlds, problems and grief come from, one emotion would be paramount; the want for more!   It drives business, advertising, government,  sports, politics, and even our everyday life!

The desire for improvement is built into our physic-nature by God when we were born…  It was designed to allow us to seek better things in our life!  The problem comes when we become Greedy and driven by the desires to have even More!

This all started Adam & Eve in the Garden of Eden;  when they listened to the Devil, tell them that what they needed was more, and they fell for it!    But more what?

What could the Devil promise them or get for them? They lived in Paradise, perfect weather, no storms, just right temperature, food available for the taking as much as they wanted…   Did not have to worry about cloths or shoes, or money, or riches, or houses, or any of the stuff we worry about or deal with!  There was no stealing, or war, or taxes, or laws, or any of those things that impact our life today!

They did not have sin to deal with, because there was no one to commit sexua| sin with, or to steal from, or to gossip about!  There was no disease, or natural catastrophe!     i.e. they had everything they needed!

So how did the Devil temp them into wanting more?

With a lie!  All the Devil could offer was the lie that they needed more; so then to disobey God and  eat from the “Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil”  There was this desire for more when they actually had everything needed for a perfect life…   They existed in almost a state of innocence as children, yet they had the ability and freedom to choose!

They were offered more!  They were told that to eat of the tree, would not cause death {a major lie} and they would be like unto God, with knowledge of right and wrong!  What they did not realize was that what they were far better off before they ate the apple or were disobedience to God!

Thus by believing a lie from Satan {the Father of lies} they entered into this present human existence full of woes!  All of this happened because of the choice to believe a lie and seek gain more!

This has been the story of humanity throughout history, the drive to get more…  Greed!     Which causes people when left without any boundaries or limits  toward wars, disease, suffering, pain, grief and countless misery!

All because of the desire for more without any consideration for the consequences!  More is not enough!    Find The Faith of God in your life!
