HEBREWS 13:5
“Keep
your lives free of the love of money and be content with what you have, because
God has said ‘never will I leave you; never will I forsake you’”
When
I was younger I loved money.and I love new things. I was always the one out of
three kids that would spend it immediately on LEGO’s or comics or a video game
or something. When I would ask my sisters how much they had, they always had
way more than me because they would save for something big, but I couldn’t keep
anything it seemed. But in growing up and earning money through hard work, I’ve
learned a new appreciation for contentment. For saving for the things I
actually need like food and clothes. Instead of blowing it on a cool, shiny new
toy. And being content with what I have. I literally don’t have a place to go.
My parents don’t own a home. I can’t live with them anymore. I have to trust in
Him for a roof over my head. And right now I couldn’t be happier. With my
class. My team. And my lack of money I feel content. I feel content with
praying with my brothers and growing with them every day, praying for only more
growth, and knowing he is with me wherever I go.
APPLICATION
Starting
today each night I will personally go to one of my brothers and ask them how I
can pray for them
