Security System - A Hope That Endures

As Christians, we don't depend on the world for ultimate security. It's not enough to have a job that simply takes care of today's needs. Somehow we need to manage wisely for the future. King Solomon drew a lesson from the lowly ant, "which, having no captain, overseer or ruler, provides her supplies in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest" (Proverbs 6:6-8).

In ancient Egypt, Joseph wisely stored up grain for the coming days of famine. In Proverbs 31, the wise woman was hard-working manager who provided for her family and wasn't worried about winter. She prepared for the coming seasons in advance. Jesus commended the shrewd steward in Luke 16 for using his current position to insure a secure future.
