What do you think?
I agree if he's speaking of material things.
I feel rich and I desire more, but most of that more is wrapped around relationships. I am interested in building richer and more relationships as I carry on in life.
What about you?
I echo your sentiments, Dotsie. I long for a richer and deeper relationship with my Lord and with my loved ones. I also long to be an instrument in the hands of the Lord.

This is interesting Dotsie. I remember being newly in love with my now husband (as opposed to old love?) Anyway, I'd be with him, grinning ear to ear, saying, "I feel like I won a million bucks!" Now, I've never won a million bucks, so how would I know how that feels? We often used the word "enriched" to describe how we enhanced each other's lives. As for my family, it is a miracle that we have returned to love, and in our mature years, our love is richer. Great topic, Dotsie. But, I wouldn't mind a million bucks, esp. now that my washer & dryer croaked. LL, L

smile and suzie, you can tell you are rich and blessed by the way you give it all away to others in these forums. Why does God make us rich? To share His love with anyone and everyone possible... ...even the bug man who is spraying my home as we speak and just informed me he threw up outside my back door. I showed him love by being compassionate and helping him wash it away with water, offering him kleenex, etc... and, by not making fun of him for spraying the rest of my home with vomit sprinkled on his shoes!
