I just took a look at my bank statement. Not pretty. For the most part, I just don't seem to be in any danger of getting rich. Work is work... success is always 'right around the corner'. The current market-place mood is 'hey, you've got a job - be happy with it'. Success at this point is a cost-of-living raise, right? Wow...
But even the rich folks are worried these days. Economic stability is extremely rare. They are rioting in London - attacking banks and throwing eggs at financiers.
Church sure is good, though, isn't it? I mean... isn't it? I'm here to tell you, I'm living for the weekends and prayer night. The Holy Spirit is alive and well and moving and doing the miraculous and sustaining people and surprising people right and left! People with no health are getting healed. People with no money are paying bills. People with no furniture are having it dropped on their doorstep (I, myself, have experienced this within the last month).
What a bunch of broke, wealthy people! There is NOTHING like being a child of the Most High. He does provide. He does care. He does intervene. He does repay. He does notice faithfulness and loyalty! Stay encouraged! Stay faithful! He doesn't want us to WASTE 10 seconds of our short lives feeling safe because of our bank account. Maybe THAT is why we're still driving the Kia. Maybe THAT is why Applebee's only comes along once a month (*sobs*). Maybe THAT is the reason I have to scalp my own lawn this year.
Ahh... do you know HIM?
