One night I was about 12 years old I asked my dad who is a pastor, daddy. Is it ok to be rich because the Bible says it’s easier for a camel to go through an eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven. Not knowing that my dad was fairly wealthy at the time....
Bro, this strikes hard at something I’ve been pondering. I want to work hard and raise my family out of generational poverty, but I don’t want to damn their souls in the process. I’ve been worried about making too much and ruining my descendants. I see rich heirs and cringe.

What does scripture say. A righteous man leaves an inheritance for his children’s children. It’s good for us to work and provide for our family but we can’t make money our idol.

I think it’s a lack of perspective. I can’t even imagine having that level of wealth.

Scripture also talks about where wisdom is so are riches. Wisdom comes from the Most High. He wants us to be wise. He wants us to have nice things. There is no virtue in poverty.
