Sunday, April 11, Wealth

It is a constant struggle to balance the desire to have more money and the desire to take care of oneself and family properly. Where is that fine line? I don't know. When I read the word, it tells me to trust in God for everything and He will take care of me. But I believe He still expects me to do my best in my job, save for the future, and plan for retirement. What do I really need here? Proverbs 30: 8-9. ...give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, "Who is the Lord?" Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God. What is true wealth? Father help me to trust in you for wisdom to know the difference between worldly wealth and heavenly wealth.
