The quest for wealth and fame has caused a lot of negative behaviours on earth. Most times, people don't consider doing good things when money is involved. It's pathetic that friendships, marriages, organizations and families are destroyed because of greed for material possessions. Today, the Lord gives us a Divine formula for a fulfilled life: Godliness and contentment.
1 Timothy 6:6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
To be Godly means to be like God. It's a personality of love, mercy, truth, peace and patience. Let us lay aside the building of riches and rather build people. Wealth will end here on earth, but our love for people has eternal rewards.
We should be contented with what God has blessed us with. If we focus in serving Christ, He'll give us more. This is the great gain: that God has blessed us because we put Him first in our lives.
Let's pray together.
Heavenly Father, thank you for your riches in our lives. Please help us to stay in Christ and be contented with our blessings, in Jesus name. Amen.
