Our Sunday school lesson this week is on being “generous”.  In looking up the definition, it said: “(of a person) showing a readiness to give more of something, as money or time, than is strictly necessary or expected.”

The scripture is that of the Rich Fool which is written in the book of Luke. It talks of the rich man giving heed to building more but not seeking the wisdom or time spent with God, the Creator.  

He spoke a parable to them, saying, “The ground of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly. He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’ He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, be merry.”‘ “But God said to him, ‘You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared—whose will they be?’ So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”  Luke 12:16-21

In studying the scripture, it made me want to think more of God and who He is in relation to all I own.  I know that knowing and seeking Him rather than things will bring an eternal reward.

What about you? Let’s seek Him today while He can be found. I am seeking too….

See you tomorrow,
