Deuteronomy 8:1-18

Why do we have such a need to own something?  In this answer lies the root of our issues of trust.  God created a capacity in us to rule, dominate, and control our surroundings; but we have allowed our undisciplined flesh to dictate the limits of our authority.  Thus, we challenge the authority of God to rule as Lord and King.  Scripture is abundantly clear who owns everything. Therefore, you can willingly surrender your desire for ownership with confidence, because you can trust the legitimate owner, God to meet your need.
