Work and provide # 2
November 2, 2021
M I’m Miriam Neff-with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY,-and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, and we’re here to talk about money.
M Scripture is relevant in every age. Today, to work or not to work is an issue for many. While Scripture is clear we should work. Paul states in Acts 20: 35 In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”
V Some cannot due to illness, temporary or long term. Others must care for them. Some experience disruptions in employment and must learn new skills. The early church shared everything, community living for sure.
M We can be sure of this: much prayer, discernment, and communication are vital. Giving at God’s direction is a blessing for sure.
