I Timothy 6:17-19

“Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.”

Ecclesiastes 5:10

“Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. This too is meaningless.”

Soul Search

• Do you feel stressed and anxious about money or paying bills on a regular basis?
  Can you talk about it?

• Are you a happy person quite apart from whether or not you have money in the bank?
  Do you think having more money would make you a happier person?

• Are you content right now with what you have?
  Why or why not?
  What makes you content?

• How generous are you with what you have?
  Do you think you have enough to share and give to those who have less than you do?
  Have you ever given from what you have to those who have more than you do?

Soul Moves

• Ask God to help you not be anxious or stressed about money.
  Ask Him to show you His perspective on money and wealth.

• Ask God to help you invest in the things that He knows will bring you happiness and to fill you with ‘happy’ even if your bank account is drained of resources.

• Read God’s Word, the Bible, and look to God to bring you to a place of contentment even if you don’t have much in the way of worldly wealth.

• Practice being generous with what you have even if it’s a little.
  Ask God to show you who He wants you to share with and be a blessing to.
