“Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.””
In a world that prioritises wealth and accumulating an abundance of possessions — the Lord warns us that we need to be careful not to let our lives be overcome with greed.
If we are careless with the way we live, we will waste our days away accumulating things that have no eternal significance or value.
Instead of that, we must cultivate a content heart and eyes that focus on the things of God. We must strive to be rich in faith, hope and love.
Look into your life today. Is there something the Lord is telling you to give up or to be on guard about?
