Col 3:18-21, gives a challenge to the family; so take a few moments to read the following verses and see how your life matches up.
Verse 18, Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Verse 19, Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. Verse 20, Children, obey your parents in everything: for this pleases the Lord. Verse 21, Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged. How did you match up? Is there anything you need to change? Have you been doing what the bible teaches in these matters? Only you can answer these questions and they must truthfully be answered. The soul is at stake. Rom 14: 11-12.

I don’t need to begin a long talk about your bank account but here is a piece of information that we all need to remember. The money in the bank can be here today and gone tomorrow. We need to reflect more upon the uncertainty of things. We may never have imagined our money being gone; but lo and behold, men steal it, or the economy eats it away like cancer. Matt 6:19-21.
Uncertainty is all around us and blows against our skin like the wind. Jas 4:14. Lk 12:13-21. While it is true that we need to save our money for the future, we need to also mediate upon what the Lord said about riches. He taught us not to make it our number one goal. Mark 9:36-37. He taught us to keep in mind that it could disappear. Jas 5:2-3. He thought us to put our main interest in things eternal. 1 Tim 6:17. Try not to panic about loss money, just do your best to preserve what you can and use this experience as a time to reflect upon your soul and where you will spend eternality. 2 Cor 5:10. Romans 14:9-12. |
