"Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction." -I Timothy 6:9 (NIV)
Many of us have gotten e-mails promising millions of dollars. Other "get rich quick" schemes offer plans and business ideas that promise unrealistic returns on investment. The idea of getting rich quick may sound appealing, but we often realize the traps of these false promises.
When we are distracted by plans and ideas for getting rich, we can lose sight of what really matters. We can fall into the trap of wanting and trying to get more without being thankful for what we have been given. God provides for us. The riches of faith in God are the only "get rich" returns that outweigh our investment and they will outlast any riches of this world!
Get rich quick by having faith in God and receiving eternal riches from His grace and mercy!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for caring for me and providing for my needs. Help me to cherish the eternal riches You provide and help me to share them with others. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
