Laying up Treasures in Heaven

I was just re-listening to Net(a)Nite 36, and recalling the world of stock options and when workplaces would issue them out like candy on a Halloween night.  I worked for an online provider (where I met Brian, actually) that had a stock option vesting thing that just had the bottom drop out of it.  Leo and Amber bring up the point of how this isn’t the smartest idea as people sit around work all day calculating their net worth.  I did that, and consequently took the loss on it when I sold out.  But I remember that the price of the stock would literally set the tone for morale in the workplace.  Most damaging in this regard.

But wait, there’s hope!  Jesus says in Matthew Chapter 6:19-34 that the wealth of this world is just that, of this world.  So it’s better to take up the cross and follow Him.  Don’t just listen to me say it, dust off that old bible and gain a whole new outlook on life.  In it is a peace that passes all understanding.
