DAILY READINGS: Deut. 26:16 to 27:26; Amos 1-2; Luke 13:22-35
Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the
truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
But godliness with contentment is great gain. 1 Timothy 6:5, 6
Those who do not embrace truth put gain ahead of all else, and then
they do a litt le wishful thinking—in eff ect concluding that gain is
godliness. But it isn’t. Material gain is not related to godliness, but
contentment is. Count your blessings and with them be thankful to
the Lord. For contentment with the Lord’s blessings does constitute
great gain and in that gain is godliness. —Doug Kazen
Come, Thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise.
—R. Robinson
