THOUGHT FOR TODAY: Reading 1Timothy 6:10… I've noticed I feel a good bit more secure with some extra money in the bank. How much of that does it take to be a lover of money? I have never seen myself as such, but I have noticed my pursuit of God is much more intense when all we have is food and raiment. In my case at least, a financial reserve can result in a degree of independence. If we had not often been forced to depend only upon God over the last 12 years, some of the highest moments of my Christian experience might never have happened. I think that God often uses my lack to keep me on track.
