[20] Hell and destruction are never full; So the eyes of man are never satisfied.
One of my biggest driving forces when I was younger was the need for the next newest thing. No matter what I had, I needed more. I wanted better. When I got something better, then I wanted the best. It was an exhausting, endless cycle of consumerism and discontent. I was never happy.
As I have gotten older and matured in my relationship with the Lord, I have come to realize that all of it eventually disappears. Everything that I have chased has worn out, been lost, or thrown away. I don't want my legacy to be reduced to what I have acquired. There is so much more to life than what we own. The only thing that is eternal is what is to come. The single most important thing I can do in this life is to love and pursue Jesus in a way the leads my legacy to Him.
