Where is your trust?
I Timothy 6:17-18 (NKJV)
17 Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy.
18 Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share.
+++++++++
You probably do not consider yourself rich, but compared to world economies, the poorest American is rich. In fact in the USA, we have so much that sometimes we think we do not need God! But God is the one who we need to trust, not any riches we may or may not have!
Trust in God and not in things. When we trust Him, then we can do good for others. If we do not trust Him, we want to hoard all we have for ourselves.
Give God thanks for all He has done for you and seek His direction for the use of what He has provided!
