Romans 12:2 prompts us to "Be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our minds...". Conforming is to correspond in character or be similar. Meaning as Christians we should not look to our neighbors or classmates or even a personality on television as strive to be like them or have what they have.
Sure it seems that these people have a worry less lifestyle, money, cars, trips around the world and here you are trying to figure out how to pay your light bill. Be assured that many of these people don't have God in their lives and all of these things are paid with a hefty price--their souls.
See Jesus paid the price for us at calvary. We could have many of those same desires of our hearts thru him if we allow him to transform our thinking. Quit chasing your desires of worldly things and chase after your Father. Let him make you new again. Let him re-establish you with in his kingdom, then watch those things you once sought after will begin chasing after you!
