Some people may dream of big houses and big cars, but I spent many years when I was younger dreaming of an inheritance that would take care of all of my financial woes. College debt? Gone! Car loan? Paid! Mortgage? Wiped out! Well, all of those things happened but not because of anyone leaving me a great sum of money. I paid off my college loans, my car loan and we are still working on the mortgage. Now my sites are set on a different kind of inheritance, having re-focused on what is truly important.

Since God is my inheritance, I don’t need to fret about the future, either here on earth or for eternity. God takes care of my needs, both physical and financial and the bonus is that He always takes care of me emotionally and mentally. My hope is in Him and who better to hope in than my Creator? I will never have a big house or a fancy car but that’s okay because I no longer care about those kinds of things. I just want to spend eternity with my Father in Heaven, rejoicing around His throne about the inheritance than no one can take from me. My future is secure with Him and I am thankful for it.
