什么才是成功之途？你无疑意识到，现代世界大力鼓吹自利和满足自己的精神。“贪心是健康的，”美国一位金融家对一间大学的毕业生说，“你可以一方面贪心，同时又感到心安理得。”但是，追求物质财富并不会带来成功。事实上，贪爱物质之心是对家庭生活的最大威胁之一，因为这种心态不但使人际关系蒙受不利影响，同时也消耗人大量时间和金钱。与此相反的是，请考虑一下仅两句圣经箴言便怎样足以帮助我们看出快乐的要诀是什么。“吃素菜，彼此相爱，强如吃肥牛，彼此相恨。” “设筵满屋，大家相争，不如有块干饼，大家相安。” 箴言１５：１７；１７：１。这岂不是有力的劝告吗？假若每个家庭都紧守这些重要原则，世界会变得多么不同！至于家庭分子应当如何相待，圣经也提供宝贵的指引。请留意其中一些训示。

English translation:

Which Way to Success? As you are no doubt aware, the modern world promotes self-interest and self-fulfillment. "Greed is healthy," a financier told a college graduating class in the United States. "You can be greedy and still feel good about yourself." But pursuing material possessions doesn’t lead to success. Materialism, in fact, is one of the greatest single threats to family life because it gets in the way of human relationships and drains people of time and money. In contrast, consider how just two Bible proverbs help us to see what is important to happiness. "Better to eat vegetables with people you love than to eat the finest meat where there is hate." "Better to eat a dry crust of bread with peace of mind than have a banquet in a house full of trouble." Proverbs 15:17; 17:1, "Today’s English Version." Powerful, aren’t they? Just think how different the world would be if every family held to these priorities! The Bible also provides valuable guidance on how family members should treat one another. Consider just a few directives it gives.
