“Labor not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.”
It is our own wisdom that tells us to labor to be rich, yet riches are fleeting. If we shouldn’t labor for riches, what should we labor for? Labor for that which is eternal, not temporal. The things that last forever are the Word of God and the souls of men. Godly wisdom is found in the person who pursues these. (Proverbs 11:30; 19:20)

Tis one life to live, it will soon be past,
Only what’s done for Christ will last.
