I am Rich

More on radical Living.

HT: Seth Barnes

The hard part seems to be realizing that I am that rich man, and that even though I say I would be willing to give up all for the Kingdom of God, I find my flesh stubbornly clinging to things that when compared to God are absolutely nothing more than shiny trinkets, rags, and hunks of rust. A part of me values my car, my home, and my iPhone enabled life above the life God has set out for me. I’ve been challenged to give and to keep giving till it hurts and let me tell you it’s hard, but as my Pastor says, “You can’t out give God”. And that I cling to.
