what fear does to us


Today we read from the One Year Bible in Hebrews 13:1-25. Paul tells us to trust God and not put our faith in money.

That's an important distinction for us to realize. Many of us don't give as generously as we might otherwise do because we're afraid. We worry that we won't have enough to pay our bills, so we don't give to the church or to the poor as much as we would like to.

Paul tells us to trust God, who is the true source of all of our wealth, and not the money itself, which comes and goes. Putting our faith completely in God frees us to give to those who need it.

God, thanks for reminding us to trust You and not money... so we can give more generously.
