Can a lottery win make you happy?

I just read this article, and it made me think about what Ps Jeff preached about today, on what we do with our money...

Money is good... because with it, we can share with those who are in need... it's the LOVE of money that is a root of all kinds of evil! So true! When I read the article, the following quote struck me:

Despite stories about overnight millionaires going off the rails, money does not have the dramatic effect we might think.

"People are frightened it's going to change them as a person but in fact it's their lifestyle that alters. If they were a kind, warm-hearted person before, they will be after."


How true... it is a good thing to have plenty of money in our hands, and no money in our hearts! So that we can give generously to those in need! "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be..."

It struck me very strongly that the Kingdom of God needs money to help those in need... it's a very practical thing. So responded to the altar call to be a successful and influential money-earner for the Kingdom of God... do eagerly hope to support the church vision to build strong and biblical people to plant strong and biblical churches in Singapore and all over the world... and hopefully one day, also be able to go overseas and help support the other churches and their social work too! (Maybe South America...)
