There were two brothers, one brother read the news paper and check to see how the stock market was doing on his investments, and the other brother although he had stock interests he read his Bible everyday.
The market tumbled in 2008 and the brother that read the newspaper stressed himself so that he had a heart attack and died. The brother that read his Bible daily knew the Lord would provide for him and his family because his well was full (his faith is in Christ Jesus).
There is a scripture that comes to mind which is Romans 8:6. The Apostle Paul says “For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace”. Every day we read our Bible, we strengthen our souls. In this life, we will come face to face with disappointments, trials, and tribulations, and when this happens to us, remember to drink from your own well.
