How am I to view my achievements? - Accomplishments - TouchPoints

James 1:9-11Believers who are poor have something to boast about, for God has honored them. And those who are rich should boast that God has humbled them. They will fade away like a little flower in the field. The hot sun rises and the grass withers; the little flower droops and falls, and its beauty fades away. In the same way, the rich will fade away with all of their achievements.

There can be joy in poverty and humility in wealth, so long as we ground our perspective in eternity. Most of our accomplishments don’t last and are soon forgotten. That’s why God’s love is not based on our accomplishments, but on his own choice to love us and cherish us.
