Every generation in every age faces times of financial
prosperity and financial downturns. At this writing, from numerous financial
indicators, a prosperous future for the world's economy and most citizens of
the world is threatened and could remain threatened for some time to come.
In all of our lives, even in times of financial prosperity, there is pain
and suffering. Even the financially richest persons on earth will get old,
infirm, feeble, and die...if they are fortunate. What a grim picture! But
wait! Even in an economic depression, we can have moments of joy. Even in
times of physical pain and suffering, we can have moments free of worry. All
of us can have a prosperous future if we accept Christ as our Savior. In
Christ, we have an unlimited future full of wealth greater than any material
wealth on earth. In Christ, we have joy no one can purchase with gold or
silver. In Christ, we have a blessed assurance of an infinite future full of
infinite love no one can purchase with any kind of financial wealth or
power. In Christ, we have an infinite future full of His prosperity. |
