I expect that you realize the best gift you can provide is demonstrating your faith in the LORD and sharing your testimony to whoever the Holy Spirit prompts you to testimony to a friend, family members, coworker, or even a stranger Jack.
I pray that you and I recognize that all the material in creation was created by the WORD of the LORD. I pray that you and I love the LORD with all our heart, soul and mind and we demonstrate this love by loving each one the LORD brings across our path to interact with, my brother-in-Christ CW5 Jack Cardwell.
I thank YOU LORD for YOUR Word as YOU admonish us “"But godliness actually is a means of great gain when accompanied by contentment. For we have brought nothing into the world, so we cannot take anything out of it either. If we have food and covering, with these we shall be content. But those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful desires which plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs." [1 Timothy 6:6-10 English Standard Version (ESV)]
LORD I lift each one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads this prayer and their close family members to YOU. I pray that YOU deliver each of us from any lust for money for money’s sake. I pray that we each volunteer our time, talents and treasure to help whoever YOU LORD prompts us to help and assist.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well Monday night.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Materialistic individuals desire and work for gold and silver. Spiritual people work for ideals and believers in a God/Spirit work for eternal life. I guess it depends on where your values are as to which road you follow.
