God Gives, God Takes Away

Everything belongs to God. Jesus is the creator and owner of everything that exists. He is the one who gave you what you have, so He has every right to take it away. Everything is His. Erase the illusion that anything is yours. Not even your life is yours. It’s God’s. Stop trying to own things. Stop being greedy and rapacious, but be content with what you have. God will always supply your needs if you ask Him, but He never promised to fulfill your wants.

“Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away. May the name of the LORD be praised.”     –Job 1:21
