Rich

Over the next two days, I will be finishing up 1 Timothy 6. I invite you to open your Bible and read along with me or find it online here.

1 Timothy 6

17 Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment.

18 Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others.

Rich. There are several important thoughts in these two verses; but the one that really struck me was “be rich in good works”. I have to admit that being “rich in good works” has never appeared on my top ten “goals for life” list; but God seems to constantly remind me that I need a new list.
