Getting What You Want – Part 2
Life doesn’t consist in the amount of material things we have! “For a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15). So we further read…“Seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye doubtful of mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things” (Luke 12:29,39).
The Lord Jesus also warned: “Take heed, and beware of covetousness” (Luke 12:15). One day we are going to leave it all behind. That’s when we’ll have more than we ever dreamed of. In the meantime, God promises to take care of all, yes, all our needs — no matter what the circumstances may be.
Remember, God has promised to supply all our needs, not all our wants. “Seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you…A treasure in the heavens that faileth not…For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Luke 12:31,33-34).
