10/17 Spanish Prayer & Life Grp 4:00pm REB How sad! The man had the wonders of the Lord

right there in front of him. He could have become

one of the Lord's closest disciples. Jesus heard him say that

he had kept the commandments. Jesus knew that he was a

good man. He loved him. But he also knew that something

was holding the man back. His possessions were the reason

for his life. All his life he had worked hard to have a lot, or,

perhaps, he had been born into a wealthy family and had

been falsely taught that the family’s wealth would guarantee

his happiness. The man thought that he was on the top of

society. Then he received a shock. True greatness was being

offered to him. Was he willing to change the focus of his life?

Was he willing to step away from his material possessions?

Evidently not. He left the Lord saddened.

We have been raised in a society that values wealth above

all else. We know that is not true. We know that the love of

our families, our children, and through them, our Lord, are

our real values, but we easily fall for the lie that happiness

can be purchased. We easily confuse our wants with our

needs. We want too much. We need very little. We want the

big house, the expensive car, the boat, etc… But we don't

need all of that. I am not just speaking to you. I am speaking

to myself. I just bought a new car. I didn’t really need one,

but I wanted a larger one. The question I have to ask myself,

though, would be, if the new car gets damaged, or stolen,

would I be terribly upset? Probably, and that would be

reasonable. But would I be destroyed? I certainly hope not.

If the loss of a material thing has an effect upon my basic

attitude to life, then the desire for the material has taken

priority over the real need of my life. All I need is the Love of

God. And it is there for me in so many ways, none of which

have to do with the quality of the wheels I am driving.

How about you? What is it that would destroy you if you

lost it? Would you be destroyed if your house were destroyed?

Would you wonder if life was worth living? I know most of

you well enough to know that would not be the case. You love

your family far more than your stuff. Your main concern

would be with them. You love your God more than anything

the world can come up with. As long as you have him, you

have all you need.
