The Measure of a Man
*Psalm 37:16-17** (NIV)*
Better the little that the righteous have
than the wealth of many wicked;
for the power of the wicked will be broken,
but the Lord upholds the righteous.

I. Introduction:
Many believe that wealth and power are to be had at all costs.

God reminds us in these verses that a man is measured according to God’s scale, not man’s.
