“The righteous shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, saying, “See the man who would not make God his refuge, but trusted in the abundance of his riches and sought refuge in his own destruction!” But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the steadfast love of God forever and ever. I will thank you forever, because you have done it. I will wait for your name, for it is good, in the presence of the godly.”‭‭Psalms‬ ‭52:6-9‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This stands out because David says, “But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the steadfast love of God forever and ever.” Is it easier to trust in abundance of riches or the love of God. If your like me, you want both. However, God sees how we shoot ourselves in the foot if we trust in anything but Him exclusively. It’s His first commandment. Jesus speaks about money more than prayer because he knows how tempting it is to put our trust in it. Please pray that we and our friends step back and honestly ask ourselves where trusting riches ranks in where we put our trust. Please pray for the CLC Buckhead social on August 10th.
