Tell Me A Story: Devotions From Time Of Grace MinistrySample
STORY #2: In cash we trust
Learning how to be a good manager of God’s stuff, especially his money, is difficult. It is learned behavior and it takes time. Our natural inclination is to love money and use people. Rapper 50 Cent’s 2003 debut CD was entitled "Get Rich or Die Tryin’." Jesus teaches us to love people and use money--see the difference?
“No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and Money” (Luke 16:13).
Stamped on U.S. currency is the legend "In God We Trust." This is a sad joke for many Americans, who neither believe it nor follow it. But it is a great reminder for people who take Jesus’ words seriously. We can love and serve God first and use money to honor him.
Where is your trust? Who is your God?
