Evening: Psalms 128, 129, 130; Zechariah 12:1-10; Matthew 19:23-30
Jesus says it’s hard for the rich to find life. Still, people think, “I could manage riches … Let me try!” Compared with many nations, Canadians are rich. In general, though, they don’t think so; there’s always someone richer. So, the rich may not even realize that riches are an impediment to their life. If you don’t know how fulfilled you’re not, riches are like death … you don’t ‘come back’, after becoming rich, to warn others, because you don’t know how un-fulfilled you are!? Is that Jesus’ point? … riches can blind us to how deeply they affect us.
