Reflections with Andy - Luke 12: 13-21 - You Can’t Take it With You

from Andy Talks · host Andy Stoddard

Today’s passage reminds us that abundance isn’t the problem—selfishness is. The rich man wasn’t called a fool because his land produced a good crop, but because he used it only for himself. He built bigger barns instead of a bigger heart. That’s the warning for us too: wealth, possessions, even security won’t follow us past this life. In God’s Kingdom, gold is just pavement. What lasts is being rich toward God—living generously, blessing others, using what we’ve been given to point people back to Him. So today, let’s hold our blessings with open hands, ready to share, ready to bless, and ready to trust that God will provide.Shameless plug: here’s a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.
