2 Timothy 3:16 (NKJV) 16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for ...
There is much talk about investments, profit and in general managing money today, the intent is to hedge against the day of need. The things that make us comfortable cannot be purchased with money, family, friends and those who really care are not about finances they are into relationships.
A family child was at a day care, she was told she was being ugly, breaking into tears she sat silent the rest of the day. When picked up by family to go home, she began crying again, asked why, she blurted out "why didn't you tell me I was ugly?"
Just as finances will not protect us against catastrophe, what we understand will not protect us from the reality of facing our Creator. For many, what God will say, will resonate in eternity with many tears and no satisfaction, forever without hope. For those who have planned ahead, His Word is all the security needed, Heaven will be the source of Joy and protection we longed for. The assurance of God is for those who have completely trusted Him, and find His word more profitable than silver and gold.
In what have you put your trust?
Heavenly Father You are all we need, let your Word be the desire of our hearts. May we read daily and carefully all that You have written for our good. Let us hedge against the Day of your appearing by absorbing all You said, that we may be found living in obedience. Amen
