Heb 13:5
“Keep
your life free from the love of money, and be content with what you have, for
he said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
Oh,
but money will and so will those man-made comforts that are attached. Often
even acquaintances (not friends) will depart when you no longer offer them benefit
or fit into their measurement of worth. Don’t fall prey to measuring your worth
by worldly wealth, you will only devalue your true worth. Paul illustrates in (Phl
4:11) that we must find our contentment and worth through God’s standard of
measurement only, anything different is volatile and will fluctuate as much as
a piece of stock. Don’t let this world put a price tag on you, and be willing
to walk away from anything or one who does so. Maybe you’ve marked yourself
down with worldly standards. It’s God who determines our worth. Get off the clearance rack and get behind the
glass where they keep the valuables! Because you were “fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psa 139:14).
A
butterfly can’t see the brilliant colors in its wings, so a man misses the
beauty God sees in them!
HSAY…
