Get the appExtraordinary Ordinary!નમૂનો
1 Timothy 6:6-19 is written from a general in the faith, erase the option of riches being a prerequisite to living a life of abundance and meaning. We may mistakenly presume that it is impossible to live a full and meaningful life without the benefit of gargantuan portions of money. Never base your potential for living an abundant life on something as transient as your checking account. Never use your monetary lack as an excuse for living an inferior life.
Some of the most fulfilled people alive today don’t have a penny to their names and yet they live a life full of Heaven’s extraordinary abundance.
This is the only time in the New Testament that this word “uncertainty” is used and Paul uses it to make a viable and eternal point. Paul is reminding those of us who love the comfort that wealth brings with it, that riches are absolutely unstable and that money can disappear as quickly as it can appear. Many people, at every historical juncture, woke up with great wealth but went to bed as mere paupers.
Do not erroneously believe that riches are a consistent source of that which is life indeed. It is so important to separate who you are from what you own. As believers, we do not fix our hope on the uncertainty of riches but on God, the Giver of all good gifts. Whether one is hugely rich or devastatingly poor, we are all to fix our hope on God who is the rich One and who gives richly, extravagantly, and abundantly to those who are His own.
