Wrong thinking will take your life in the wrong direction.
One may go and lease a store front. After leasing they may go in and change things around or improve it to their liking. The space is not theirs just because they improved it, oh no it still belongs to the owner. Not far from where I live there were hundreds of acres full of trees and all kinds of undergrowth. Then one day I went by and they were clearing the property. After they cleared they fenced it all in. Then they built barns and other things. What it cost to do that I could not even begin to know in my little tin cup mind. Then I read this in the book of Psalms.
Psalms 24:1 (KJV) The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
Now there is a piece of paper at the county court house that says this man who did all those improvements owns the property. Does he? Looks like to me he’s just leasing; “The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof;” It’s not ownership we were told that from the very beginning. Genesis 2:15 (KJV) And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
Dress it, keep it! Clear it, fence it in, build on it but remember it’s not yours.
