We desire to be men and women of faith, but are we actually focused on our wealth and means instead? Do we open our eyes in the morning and call out to a servant “Bring me my coffee and bread”? Do we sit down with a newspaper and begin our day by studying the world, and how we will increase our earthly treasure? O brothers and sisters, if we were more like the poor who open their eyes and say “Thank you Father for this day”, and “Lord, how might I serve you better?” In considering this, do we find that we worship mammon over God, or at very least do we pursue our wealth on an even plane with God?
