Desires, lack and work

Eph 4:28 Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need.

God says that I should stop stealing and start working.
What I desire but lack, I should work to get it then share it out

What do I want?

1. Quality time with spouse?
2. Business growth?
3. Obedient children who love God?
4. A relationship with Jesus that is real and relevant to others?

I should work to get these things, then share with others

Work can be through:

1. Studying the word
2. Reading books
3. Acting on what God leads me to do
4. Waiting

When I receive what I wanted, I should release it to others. Very interesting!
Moving from lack to plenty and sharing resolves anger.

Eph 5:10 and find out what pleases the Lord. Find out...(Read Scriptures).

Dear God, I am excited to hear from You. I am asking for strength and grace to obey your instructions. Amen
