DAILY READINGS: 2 Kings 19; Jeremiah 52; 1 Timothy 3
Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy. 1 Timothy 6:17
Financial turmoil has affected the economies of the world. The temptation is to examine our own posessions whether it be stocks, bonds, or other investments and place our faith in them. While it may be prudent to plan for the future, we are warned not to trust in these riches, but in the living God. Why? Because "my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Phil. 4:19). No other investment can make such a claim. —Bob Cretney
Simply trusting every day, trusting through a stormy way;
Even when my faith is small, trusting Jesus that is all. —Edgar P. Stites
