Are you content with what you have? The Bible tells us that the love of money is the root of all evil.

Are you content with what you have? Do you believe that I will never leave you nor forsake you?

It is written, “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.'” (Hebrews 13:5)

This world is often defined by acquisitions. More, more, more. There is so much pressure to accumulate and build up treasures for yourself on Earth.

But this isn’t how you were made to live. In a state of striving. Feeling less than others. Worried that you don’t or wont have enough. Or even worse, feeling like you yourself are somehow not enough.

Oh, how this breaks My heart.

I am your Creator! And my creations are good. This world is fallen and it will suck you down with it, if you don’t arm yourself with My word. The Truth.

It is written, “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal.” (Matthew 6:19) Earthly treasures are temporary and can be destroyed. But heavenly treasures are eternal. This is why I tell you to keep your eyes fixed on me. Don’t be distracted by the glitter and gold of this world. Don’t fall for the pressure of more, more, more. You are enough. I will provide all that you need. Have I not already proven this? Do you trust me?

Behold, I share this with you because I love you. You are my child. Heed My word.

Daily Bible reading is essential to protect ourselves from the lures of this fallen world. http://www.gotquestions.org is a great resource if you have any questions about the Bible.
