28 He who trusts in his riches will fall, but those who are right with God will grow like a green leaf.
Proverbs 11:28 (NLV)
When you rely on riches and wealth rather than trust in God, you are like a leaf that withers and falls to the ground. When you trust in God and rely on His Word, you are building a treasure in heaven. You are rooted in Christ and flourish like a healthy tree, with deep roots, strong branches, and laden with healthy green leaves. Instead of worshiping temporary riches, flourish spiritually and be right with God.
28ย A life devoted to things is a dead life, a stump;ย a God-shaped life is a flourishing tree.
Proverbs 11:28 (MSG)
Where is your treasure? Are you right with God, thriving, growing, and flourishing?
Prayer: Our heavenly and loving Father teach us to trust in You and Your Word. Help us to put our faith in You rather than worldly riches. Let us be right with you, set our hearts on You, and grow and flourish spiritually. Like the rose of Sharon’s display of vibrant bright flowers and healthy green leaves, let us be vibrant in our faith and display healthy spiritual growth. In Jesus’ holy name. Amen

May He always be our treasure and security and may we pursue only Him and not the temporal things of this world.
Have a wonderful weekend Jeanne ๐

It is easy to become distracted by worldly things, focusing on God, and determining what is spiritually important, allows us to grow and flourish. Good to hear from you, Manu! Have a peace-filled lovely weekend! ๐ผ๐บ๐

This reminds me of a song from back in the day, โGet right with God and do it now; get right with God , He will show you how. Right down at the cross where He shed His blood, get right with God, get right, get right with God.โ ๐ถโค๏ธ๐ผ
