Greed Grips Our Hearts....


"Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” – Luke 12:15

In these verses, Jesus is addressing two brothers fighting over their inheritance. He gives them a strong warning about thinking that their possessions can give their life worth and ultimate value.

Greed grips our hearts when we place material things (or anything) in the place of God and his ultimate approval and blessings in our life. We have been given the very best God has to offer in the form of his Son!

So think about it. Are you being Greedy about material things, or anything in general? Is it getting in the way of your relationship with God? if so STOP IT! Make a change for your God and glorify God the right way.
