What Do You Depend On?

What do you turn to when things go wrong? Do you depend on you most? Do you depend on things you have most? Things will not always go as we hope or plan for.

"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." (John 16:33 NIV)

If you depend on you or your stuff, then how many resources do you really have? If you are anything like me you probably run out of resources really quickly. Then what?

We are experiencing a time in history when our entire financial system seems to be in some sort of trouble. Retirement plans have vanished, property values have dropped, and unemployment is at an all time high. So what do you do?

"But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal." (Matthew 6:20 NIV)

We will fail...and our stuff will go away. God is eternal, perfect, and has a plan for us to follow. He even provides the instructions in case we get hung up or distracted along the way. It is a pretty good read too...get into the Word, and let it get into you.

Depend on Him...


Serving our Savior,
Pastor Pat
