Pastor Preaching (June 07, 2009) - Be Content

We are living at a time where the country is facing its worst economic downturn in recent history. Jobs are disappearing because many companies are going under, while others are outsourcing their businesses overseas where labour cost is cheaper. While we cannot do anything about what is happening to the economy, we can certainly do something about our reaction towards it. If we react in fear, then fear will immobilize us so that we cannot respond the way that we should as believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. On the other hand, if we respond in faith, we know that God is able to deliver us from this economic recession. The best way to respond, then, is to heed the Apostle Paul's admonition, "But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that" (1 Tim. 6:6-8).
