Money worries? What does Hebrews tell us?

One of my favorite books in the Bible is Hebrews. It's a book that I've just discovered in the past year. I like it because the teachings are for people who are at risk for giving up their faith because of persecution. It's a sermon by an unknown author to tell us to be strong in our faith and never to give up hope.

Personally one of the struggles that I deal with is money, or lack thereof. I am in a very rewarding profession. My rewards are greater spirituality and joy! But I struggle with making ends meet. Just when I get back on track financially, a money crisis comes up like car repairs or medical bills. Then I get very frustrated! That's when I call upon God for assistance. Sometimes he answers in subtle ways. I went to buy a sandwich today at a local supermarket and got a coupon for a free sandwich! That was a big surprise. I think He is trying to tell me not to worry, he has got a plan to get me back on track. I have to trust in his mercy and grace! I know he has a plan for me!

What does Hebrews say about money woes? Hebrews 13: 5-9 Let your life be free from love of money, but be content with what you have, for he has said, "I will never forsake you or abandon you." Thus we may say with confidence:

                    
                             "The Lord is my helper, and I will not be afraid.
                               What can anyone do to me?"

Remember your leaders who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND FOREVER.

I put that last sentence from scripture in bold print because it speaks to me of consistency and hope for the future. Christ will never change and He will always be there for us. So I need to daily put my trust in Christ to help me with my money worries. I know He has a plan for me, my job is to trust in his plan! Amen!
