Many Sorrows

"Many Sorrows" By Diane Webb

1 Timothy 6: 10—"For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows."

Do not pursue money. Make no decisions based on money. Money is the least important factor when trying to decide what to do. When you desire money and spend your time thinking about money you are moving away from God. God is not to be found in money or the pursuit of financial gain. God will provide for you one way or another. You do not need to spend your time trying to figure out how to make more money. The love of money truly is the root of all evil. Once the love of money takes over then bad decisions are sure to follow. When your goal is money you have strayed from the path God has set for you. Keep your eyes on Jesus and He will lead you in the path of righteousness. Many sorrows come from the desire to have more money but following Jesus leads to eternal life.

Dear Heavenly Father, help me make decisions based on what's within your will and what glorifies you the most. Open my ears so I can hear your voice and know your will for my life. Help me keep my eyes on Jesus and never stray from the path where He leads. I pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
