“Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one’s life does not consist of possessions.”
--------------------------------------------------------- Luke 12:15
The Gospel message today is contrary to our modern culture where advertising continually tries to convince us that our value lies in the things we possess. Jesus showed us that our true value lies in the way we live our lives. He challenges us to not hoard material possessions, but rather to live a grateful and generous lifestyle and become more “other-centered” and less “self-centered.”
