“Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”  Luke 12:15

Almost half of Jesus’ parables are about money and wealth. In Luke 12, Jesus describes a rich fool who planned to build bigger barns for all he owned. But the man died that night, and everything he’d worked for went to other people. Verse 21 says, “Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God.”

“In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. … If your gift is serving others, serve them well. … If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously.” Romans 12:6-8

Wisely, God made each of us different. As individuals, we have a wide variety of talents—and a wide variety of ways to use them. God wants us to harness our gifts to meet other people’s needs and to give him glory.
