Everything I own is God's: quick theology thoughts

We live in a culture that amasses stuff. So very much stuff: toys, books, clothes, cars that are traded in for more expensive cars, houses that quickly get filled with every imaginable item.

The thing is I earn the money. I can spend it how I see fit, yes?

If I recognize with Paul that my very existence is dependent on God then I have to admit that so is my ability to work and probably the fact that I have a job at all.

If it's all His then maybe I should focus more on why he has given me this gift, what is his intended purpose, then focus on filling my life with things that I "need."
