Proverbs 8

 My fruit is better than fine gold; what I yield surpasses choice silver. (8: 19) This verse sticks out to me because it is saying that what God has to offer is better than anything in the world. It is strange to think of picking God over money or expensive things we think we need. Two actions steps I could take would be try to not be so dependent on material things like clothes or ipods. The next time I want to buy more things I can  just remember what is actually important. Another action I could take would be to give some of my clothes and things to a shelter or childrens place that needs the items much more than I do. I could do this because God and his people are much more important than money or materials.
