Guardrails are for your protection. God placed guardrails in His word to keep you away from spiritual trouble. This past week Bradley opened God’s word and encouraged us to guard our hearts from evil. He spoke out of Proverbs 4 that tells us to “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” That instruction is similar to the words of Christ who says to “Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.” When you do this God adds to your stature. You grow in wisdom and knowledge and in so doing you protect your life.
This week we’ll look at God’s guardrails connected to money. Money is a vital asset in our current world and the system of this world. How does it work? Is there ever enough money? Should you pursue money at all? How should you handle the money you earn? The scriptures give us insight as to how to handle money and how to view money. We’ll be talking about these situations this weekend.
On a personal note, the elders came and prayed over me Tuesday night connected to my upcoming surgery. They anointed me with oil and poured out their hearts before the Lord. What a joy it is to have godly leaders who try to live out the scriptures. Melody and I appreciate the prayers very much.
Can’t wait to worship with you this Sunday.
See you then,
Scott
