MONEY IS NOT GOD

Tuesday of the Twentienth Week in Ordinary Time Year C Matthew 19:23-30 God does not condemn rich people but their attachment to their riches. It is not bad to be wealthy but replacing God for money is. Friends, too much possessions will possess us. Thats the danger! The point is not so much that God will prevent the rich from entering the kingdom, but that their riches will be an obstacle in their path. Wealth may create a sense of false security. Wealth has also the potential to be an obstacle for having the true understanding of where the true riches in our lives lies. If money and material things become the center of our lives, they seize us and make us slaves. I shared it with you before but I wanted to repeat it this time: “If material things are what your talking about when you say ‘I am blessed” you have no idea what blessing is.” Friends, God will never leave us empty. He is a God who always provide. “For God all things are possible.” Guys, do what you love and money will follow. Dreams dont work unless you do. But please finance your life with God. Blessings Fr.
