No Holes

Today’s reading: Luke 12:8-34

“The purses of heaven have no holes in them.” - Luke 12:33

Fear of provision is a real thing right now in our world. People rushing to grocery stores and buying out many essential items out of fearing the future.

Jesus is speaking to a far more financially oppressed people. They were meal to meal, day to day. Yet he has the audacity to say these things. Either he was losing it or he really meant what he said.

Are we investing too much financial means into our own self preservation or are we taking what we need and investing the rest into God’s kingdom? Do we trust God enough? Or will we tear down our barns to build larger ones?

In the end, we will not regret investing into a kingdom whose heaven has purses with no holes in them.

Jesus, keep challenging us to think bigger and more faith-filled when it comes to our finances. May we realize that you own them and that we don’t want them to own us.

🙏
