Read MoreThis is not to say that God does not care about our physical needs. In His kindness, God sustains His people and grants them earthly blessings far beyond what we deserve. But we should not equate our earthly blessings with our faithfulness or God’s love for us: “godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come” (1 Tim. 4:8), But godliness is not a means of (earthly) gain (1 Tim. 6:5). Our true riches do not consist of the earthly possessions we acquire; our true riches are in possessing the God of all riches and contentment. One can have many possessions but will have no contentment if his heart is not rich. But if your heart is rich with God, you will be truly rich and content. How do you want God to bless you?
