Rich and poor have this in common; the Lord made them all. ~ Proverbs 22:2

“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other.

Where do place your priority in each moment?

“Praise the name of God forever and ever, for He has all wisdom and power. He controls the course of world events. He removes kings and sets up other kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the scholars.” ~Daniel 2:20-21
