Can Money Buy Happiness?

In the book, What Would Jesus Do Today? Mike Cope and Rubel Shelly give us a great list of things money can and cannot provide in our lives. Here is the list:

One more trip to the mall cannot fix you. Money Can buy:

• Sex, but not intimacy
• A house, but not peace
  
• Medicine, but not health
• Amusement, but not joy
• Therapy, but not healing
• A bed, but not sleep
• Allies, but not friends

I love that list. At times I think we all misplace our expectations of money. Notice the internal issues that really add meaning cannot be touched by a magic wand. Those parts of us can only be healed by the One who created us.
