Ezekiel 28:1-10.
Matthew 19:23-30
It is not wealth itself which is
the stumbling block to fullness
and perfection , but in regarding
it as an end in itself. To seek
wealth and possessions for their
own sake is unrewarding, self-defeating
: there is no future in it. Selfishness
self-centredness and neglect of
those in need can be the outcome
of amassing more and more of this
world's goods.
Be prepared to share all that you
hold most dear with others : for
this the Father showered on you
His gifts and blessings. Offer all
to Him in what you have and are
and in what you are becoming . So
will you come into that fullness
which He prepared for you before
time was in his most glorious world
in the company of the angels and
archangels and all the redeemed
and sanctified in Us .
"The faithful shall abide
with him in Love".
