Command those who are rich with things of this world not to be proud. Tell them to hope in God, not in their uncertain riches. God richly gives us everything to enjoy. Tell the rich people to do good, to be rich in doing good deeds, to be generous and ready to share. By doing that, they will be saving a treasure for themselves as a strong foundation for the future. Then they will be able to have the life that is true life. Timothy, guard what God has trusted to you. Stay away from foolish, useless talk and from the arguments of what is falsely called “knowledge.”

Dive into the fifth habit: Resources.
We don’t have to participate in the atmosphere of vitriol that pervades our culture. God has called us to a better way. We are to demonstrate His kindness through the way we treat others and what we say to them. As bestselling author, Dr. Tony Evans, explores in these devotions, we can make a difference by practicing intentional kindness in the midst of all the darkness in our culture.
