An Old Lesson
Scripture – Proverbs 15:16-17: Better a little with the fear of the LORD than great wealth with turmoil. Better a meal of vegetables where there is love than a fattened calf with hatred.
Reflection: How many times have we heard this same lesson? When we already have enough, having more does not make life better. It only brings more concern or turmoil. Being satisfied with simple things is a key to wholeness. Cultivating love for people is far better than living in competition with them.
We all know this is true. Living with simple trust and faith in Jesus Christ is the path to wholeness and holiness. How many times do we have to hear this same lesson before we put it into practice? Maybe today we will start fresh. What’s there to stop us?
