God gives us more than the ability to produce wealth...

Deuteronomy 8:17-18 "You may say to yourself, 'My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me. ' But remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth...”

-       We tend to think that our income or salary is a reflection of our own worth.
-       So if we earn a lot of money - we feel good about who we are, and if we earn a small income we tend to feel small and insignificant.
-       The God of the Gospel frees us from this lie. Your income is not a reflection on your worth - rather it is a reflection of God's grace to you. Through giving to us his Son He gave us far more than the ability to produce wealth - He became our Father that now eternally cares for us!

Prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, you don't just give us gifts to produce an income - you gave us yourself to settle our debt eternally and welcome us into our Father's home. Please help us to view our money correctly and to be freed from its grip over our lives. Amen
