In todays' crazy world we seek/run after success,material wealth , prestige and power,thinking that this will make us happy or will complete us.
We may achieve much of our desired success,but are surprised when we realise that this does not give us the satisfaction or the peace we thought it would.
In fact, we may become anxious,fear may enter due to our newfound possessions which we become obsessed with protecting,or we may try to hold down two or even three jobs to acquire what we think we require in order to have a "good/better life".
We lose our peace,our joy(and remember the Joy of the Lord is indeed our strength),and have sleepless or restless nights and God did not intend for us to "eat of the bread of sorrows"
Friends we are missing God's design and His purpose for us, as His children.
God's thoughts are clear,and provide us with wise insight into how we should live.
He says In Matt 6:33"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
Meditate on : Phil 4:6-7 "Be not anxious for anything,but with prayer and supplication make your requests known before God.7And the peace of God which passes all human understanding will keep your heart and mind in Christ Jesus".
May Peace and Joy in the Holy Spirit be your portion in this day.
May Love overwhelm you and surround you.
And just for today,take five minutes,and thank God for all the things you have which money just cannot buy.
Your B.I.C.
