The Sermon on the
Mount [Mt.5-6] directions need to overtake any sermon of the consumer-shopping
motivation. Too much getting and collecting becomes self-centered. You
only need to keep and use what is necessary and especially give toward what
enhances God’s Kingdom. Adopt a full-time gift lifestyle. Discontinue collecting,
avoid the hoarding tendency that falsifies longer living, work out ways to give
things away and not expect any return. Freedom gives more than it takes!
Prayer: Lord, remind me to behave today in any way that will keep me
other-centered rather than self-motivated.
