Rich toward God

David preached on the parable of the rich fool in Luke 12, calling us place relationships above possessions, and our relationship with God about all else. Here is part of his conclusion:

When we possess things in the world, we may think we are the owners of the things. But that is not true. The more we possess things, the more we are possessed by the possessions. We are trapped by our property, we are disconnected from God and others, we lose freedom, and finally we lose our lives. But when we are possessed by God, we are set free and we come to have everything in God. And we praise joyfully, “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.” Even we have the power to serve others as God’s priests.
