(Matthew 13:22) “Those who are determined to be rich,” wrote the apostle Paul, “fall into temptation and a snare and many senseless and hurtful desires, which plunge men into destruction and ruin.” (1 Timothy 6:9) To help them avoid this “snare,” Jesus reminded his followers that their heavenly Father knew they needed all these things.
( Mathayo 13:22 ) “Wale ambao wameazimia kuwa matajiri,” akaandika mtume Paulo, “huanguka katika jaribu na mtego na tamaa nyingi zisizo na akili na zenye kuumiza, ambazo hutumbukiza watu katika uharibifu na uharibifu.” ( 1 Timotheo 6:9 ) Ili kuwasaidia kuepuka “mtego” huo, Yesu aliwakumbusha wafuasi wake kwamba Baba yao wa mbinguni alijua kwamba walihitaji vitu hivyo vyote.
