God also appoints the kind of job we take. Let us do a good job and serve Him with gladness and not as a drudgery. We should not complain about our job like so many today, but praise the Lord for it. Let us not try to grasp at more business than we can go through without frustration.
Godly contentment is great gain.
When God has blessed our lives with riches it is legitimate for us to enjoy them, thanking Him for His goodness. We can live in a bigger house and drive a better car, but remember we are not towkays but stewards. Therefore we must live frugally that we may give our dues to the Lord. We save up to support the work of His Church and missions. Conversely, Solomon observes a common evil in the affairs of men.
