Reflection
Luke 12:13-21
13 Someone in the crowd
said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the family inheritance with me.” 14 But He said to
him, “Man, who
appointed Me a judge or arbitrator over you?” 15 Then He said to
them, “Beware, and be
on your guard against every form of greed; for not even when one has an abundance does his life consist
of his possessions.”16 And He told them
a parable, saying, “The land of a
rich man was very productive. 17 And he began
reasoning to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store
my crops?’ 18 Then he said,
‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and
there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19 And I will say
to my soul, “Soul, you have many
goods laid up for many years to
come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry.”’ 20 But God said to
him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?’21 So is the man
who stores up
treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”
Prayer: Reflecting specifically on this
devotional, write out a prayer to God.
