Daily Walk in the Catechism

91. Is all wanting, desiring, and ambition sinful?

No. God encourages us to seek His blessings of food, shelter, good jobs, health, success, and so on for ourselves and our family.

Psalm 107:6-9 Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and He delivered them from their distress. He led them by a straight way till they reached a city to dwell in. Let them thank the LORD for His steadfast love, for His wondrous works to the children of man! For He satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul He fills with good things.
