Contentment vs Greed: How to Find Satisfaction in Our SaviorSample

Day 3: God, the Provider

On Day 3, we’re diving into the idea of God as the Provider. The Word is clear: His provision is not just financial; it includes emotional, spiritual, and physical needs.

So, how is it that we get confused sometimes and allow doubt to seep in? We convince ourselves that we will always have everything we want, when we want it.

God's timing is not our timing. In His wisdom and love, God will take care of what we truly need. That is His promise.

As humans, we often struggle when asked to trust God to provide in His timing and His way. When we focus on God's provision instead of our worries, we experience peace, knowing that He is faithful and able to provide in every circumstance. Trusting Him to meet our needs allows us to loosen our grip on material concerns. Why stress about a new car or the latest sneakers when we get to spend eternity with our Father?

Father, thank You for Your promise to meet all my needs. Help me to trust You fully and surrender any anxiety or fear about finances or material things. You are my Provider, and I know that You will supply all that I truly need. Let me rest in Your faithfulness today and always.

Q: Are there times when you struggle to trust God’s provision? What are ways you can re-center your attention, decrease your anxiety and focus on God’s promise? Journaling? Prayer? Meditation? Song? Find a way that works for you and continue practicing.

Whether you struggle with financial stressors, feel dissatisfied with what you have, or find yourself placing too much importance on wealth, this devotional was designed to help you refocus on Christ. Come back to it whenever you need to.

Remember: In Him, we find a contentment that the world cannot offer—a peace that surpasses all understanding. Thank you for spending the past three days immersed in the word and in deep reflection.

I pray that these words reach you at the right point in your spiritual journey. If you find yourself feeling lost or overwhelmed, please know that you’re not alone.
