Who’s The Mistress?

PRAYING FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS, CHURCH AND NATION:

May you be driven by the love of God & not the mistress of money (Heb 13:5). #DrivenByGod’sLove #NoFantasyAffairs #LoveNotTheWorld #Can’tServeGodAndMoney

MORNING WATCH NOTES:

Here is an interesting notation. The writer inserts a riff of a different tune. He is talking about the kinds of relationships followers of Christ ought to foster. Then he says, “Don’t love money…be satisfied.“ Why would he say that? Contentment.

I think that some of the most content people (speaking of Believers here) are the most effective at ministry with others. If one has a love affair with, motivated by, money and material things, it will compromise a loving, caring relationship with others. It will be like the secret mistress who drains the efficacy out of the fidelity of another relationship.

Lord, may my motives in life be always pure; focused on God and others.
