If there were one great message I could deliver to those who struggle with not having an abundance of this world’s goods, it would be this simple yet profound promise for happiness: Great wealth is not related to money! In a word, the secret is contentment.
From Proverbs 16:8: “Better is a little with righteousness than large income with injustice.”

God will use failure in your life to break down that strong desire in your heart to see your name in lights. And when He finally breaks you of that lust for recognition, He may place you before the lights like you’ve never imagined. But then it won’t matter. You won’t care if you’re prime time of small time, center stage or backstage, leading the charge or packing the baggage. You’re just part of the king’s army.
From Galatians 5:26: “Let us not become conceited, competing against one another, envying one another.”

From Psalm 23:1-3: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters; he restores my soul. He leads me in right paths for his name’s sake.”

We live our lives under the careful, loving, gracious, albeit sovereign, hand of our God. And the movements of time and history tick off according to His reckoning, exactly as He ordained.
From Psalm 31:14-15: “But I trust in You, O Lord; I say, ‘You are my God.’ My times are in Your hand.”

It is only through Scripture, applied to our hearts by the Holy Spirit, that we receive the grace to trust God in everything.

Pride, fear, resentment, and habit are all tough evidences of the flesh. But those who are being shaped into the image of Christ do not go the way of the flesh.
