Dear Friends
Today's Gospel story about the rich young man invites us to think about the place of money in our lives....and in the Church
In several of his Joshua novels, Joseph Girzone says how the Church has become a business....meeting times more and more taken up with financial matters.....priests and bishops in the role of business managers
Trust in Providence has been replaced by trust in Provident Funds
A
saying from the famous English Evangelical missionary to China, Hudson Taylor,
comes to mind:
God's work, done in God's way, will never lack God's supplies"
May the Church get out of the business of being a business
------
On this
14th of the month,
Jesus please bless
the people of Jilin
(Please join me in praying for one
part of China each day of the month)
My Bible Plan for today =
The readings for the 28th Sunday of the Year
Let's use these readings to pray for more wisdom concerning the use of money
Thank you for a prayer
God bless!
