“Simply Better”
Tuesday, August 5, 2025Key Verse
“A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.” Psalm 37:16
Text —Psalm 37:16-18
Message
The story was told of a politician who engaged in lavish spending and lived large as a result of the wealth he got through corruption. His children went to the best school in town, lived in the best house and drove the best cars, but he lacked peace. On the other hand, Damian lived with his parents in a modest house, he went to the school his parents could afford, they had no car, yet they were happy because they were satisfied with what they had, they were simply better.
To be simply better is to be satisfied with what God has given to you, there is no room for complaining and murmuring, but accepting what you have and being grateful to God for it. By doing so, God will give you much more than what you have and even go further to give you what you did not ask for.
Do not be envious of the riches of the wicked, it is like a flower that fades away after some time. You should be satisfied with what your parents give you and the blessing of God shall be upon you.
