Night Prayer
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
Inspiration
Jesus tells us not to accumulate hoards of material possessions because they will not last. The cloth will be eaten by moths and deteriorate into nothing. Metal objects will rust and crumble into dust. All our earthly possessions are temporary. Scripture tells us it’s important to set aside a portion of our wealth in order to provide for our family and maintain financial stability. Wealth only becomes troublesome when we allow it to control our behavior. We will not become greedy by stashing away meaningless worldly treasures. Instead, we choose to provide for others and give with happy hearts.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, You are our only treasure! We will use the wealth You’ve blessed us with to provide for others with happy, genuine hearts. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
