It’s Not Your Stuff
Posted by The Godfather on July 28th, 2010 in Uncategorized with No Responses
It’s Not Your Stuff! Always remember this – you don’t own any of it. Everything you have is a blessing from God, and you are the steward of those blessings for a short time. So what are your top three priorities. Regardless of what you think they are, here is how you can tell the truth. First, look at your checkbook and see where you spend your money. Second, evaluate how you spend your time. Do you work 80 hours a week or do you take the time to give back? As always, I am called to be a witness, not the judge and jury. Just a gentle reminder that it is not YOUR stuff!
There are two upcoming charity events in Las Vegas that should not be missed! September 11 is Jeans to Jewels for Opportunity Village. Western hoedown at Frank Martin’s Bitter Root Ranch. Tickets are $175. Check out www.opportunityvillage.org or contact me directly.
September 30 is DISH for Three Square at the Palms. Celebrity chefs, live/silent auction and a rock concert inside Rain! Check out www.threesquare.org or buy tickets at http://www.stayclassy.org/las-vegas/events/dish/e1352.
