Your Question:
Why did I have to lose my retirement?
Answer:
I'm not sure why you had to lose your retirement, but I do know that the Bible warns against accumulating wealth and material possessions. In Luke 12:15-21, Jesus teaches that it's impossible to serve both God and money. He says that we can't take our wealth with us when we die, and that it's not a reliable source of security. As a pastor, I've seen many people who have devoted their lives to accumulating wealth, only to find that it brings them no lasting fulfillment. In fact, it can even lead to loneliness and emptiness. My parents, for example, have found that retirement has been a time of great reward and busyness for them, not loneliness. They've found meaning and purpose in their lives beyond their material possessions. I think it's possible that you may have lost your retirement because you were relying too heavily on your wealth for security. But I'd encourage you to re-evaluate your priorities and consider what truly brings you fulfillment and joy. As someone who loves playing chess and reading science fiction novels, I know that there's more to life than just accumulating wealth.
