Timothy 6:17
"As for the rich in this
present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on the
uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to
enjoy." ESV
Those who are blessed with
finances and the finer things of this world are at greatest risk to put their
trust in possessions and material assets. It is important to pay attention to
where we put our trust. It is so easy to become reliant on financial and
material comfort in a time where economic status is a standard of our
achievement and is envied and desired by most people today. However, the only
sure, real, and lasting security comes from the Almighty God and He supplies us
with the wealth and riches that will never fade away. The riches of God, that
have very little to do with things we collect on this earth, are those that He
supplies to every one who believes in Him and He pours out these riches to us in
abundance and with His pleasure.
Heavenly Father, forgive us for
putting our trust and security in the riches of this world. We fail to remember
that all of these things are temporary and will pass away. But the riches You
give us are spiritual, finer than any precious stone or metal, and are eternal
because of Your love for us. Help us to keep our trust in You, we pray in the
name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
