May 16th, 2025 by Pastor Solley1 Tim 6:17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
KJV
Are you enjoying life? Many will answer no to that question if they are honest and many of those who answer no will profess to be born again believers. Are you enjoying life? The Bible clearly states that God “Giveth us richly all things to enjoy”. Why then are we not enjoying life? Could it be because we focus all our attention upon the trials of this life when we should be focused on the goodness of God, the love of our savior, and what is stored up in heaven? (Col 3:1-2 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.) Yesterday I visited in hospitals, nursing homes, and homes of those who are shut in, prayed with some in difficult situations, and it tells me something, this world is a world of trials and troubles. But our God is always good and when we set our attention on things above, when we focus on His great love for us, then we can enjoy life even in the midst of trials. We are truly given richly by our God, we need to enjoy the things God is giving to us and we can if we focus upon Him.
