We always want more.
Our desire to own is beyond our strength, we believe that it is our material that makes our identity, we are convinced that our assets qualify us, we believe that our goods distinguish us.
The truth is, we never take the time to bless the Lord, we never stop to celebrate the grace of God in our lives, we don’t pause to say thank you, we neglect the thankfulness.
How many times have we blessed the name of the Lord for our health?
How many times this year have we given thanks to the Lord for the life that gives us?
How many times have we gone to the needy to give them our affection and our time?
What is the point of amassing wealth if we do not know how to share with others?
Jesus makes a shocking statement in Matthew, 13:12 – For whosoever has, and he shall be given more, and he who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.
Be grateful for what you have so far!
Did Jesus then make the program to enrich the rich even more and to take from the poor what little he has?
What is Jesus telling us about in this text?
How rich are we?
Is this wealth a blessing or a curse?
Does this wealth trouble us?
This curious phrase from Jesus makes us think.
Let’s go in the parable of the five talents, of what God gives us.
The Bible tells us that God gives according to ability.
It is a responsibility, it is a deposit to help the world, to improve the condition of a person.
The one to whom the master gave a talent could not multiply, he could not do anything.
And that’s how the Lord took away from him the job that he could have done that he didn’t.
Yet he was rich in potential, he was a talent but it was a wealth, it was enormous to develop.
Let us have the capacity to bear fruit,
to seize our opportunities, assimilate our strengths and let the word of God reason in us.
Let us bless the Lord.
The key is not to have it but to know what to do with it.
Gratefulness to the Lord is seeing the hand of the Lord in our lives that helps us bear more fruit.
Hello beloved
Have a good day
