Hey mum! I was wondering if i can get the new iphone 13? all my friends are getting it and I'm still stuck with this old bricks. Please?
Hmmm, i'm not too sure honey. Remember that God wants us to stay focused and live for him.
*driving on their way to church*
Well i really want that new phone, and who's stopping me from getting it so why not get it?
Hey Look at my new phone! I am absolutely loving it! Wanna be in my Snap photo?
I wish I had one.
*During Church*
In Matthew 6:19-24, it tells us that we must keep our mind set on heaven and that earthly things are something to distract us.
Hmm... well i really want that phone but at church we learnt about Matthew 6:19-24. I remember to not be distracted by earthly things (like phone) put focus on our eternal prize.
Hey mum, I have made my decision on the new phone I want to buy and have decided not to get it becauseI don'tneed it. I realise now that only things in heaven will last forever so I should start to invest more time in that than on earthly things.
Yay! I'm so happy for you to come to this decision!!!
