I Timothy 6:17 ” Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, Who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.”

Everyday we’re hit by the uncertainties of life…from the elusiveness of wealth in a ever changing economy to our own unpredictable health status. As humans, we like to have all our ducks in a row knowing what each day will bring…but life doesn’t work that way, and the only thing we can be certain of is that fickleness will show up. I was struck by a quote of Oswald Chambers’ about this when he wrote, ” Certianity is the mark of the commonsense life – gracious uncertainty is the mark of the Spiritual life.” So think about this…when we have child-like confidence that God is in control and taking care of us, we don’t need to be in doubt & fear for tomorrow…and we can rest assured that no matter what life may bring, God already has full control over it.
