![]() Rejoice in the Lord for your blessings are many! Let us not forget the encounter Jesus had with a rich man in Matthew 19:16-30. In Matthew 19:21 Jesus says,“If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” Afterwards the rich man leaves unhappy because he owned so many things (which he is supposedly attached to and does not want to give away). Then in Matthew 19:23-24, Jesus says to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

Something New
I’ve been through many transformations in my life. When I was 14, I was suicidal and depressed, yet God healed me when I joined a Bible study. When I was 16, I rejoiced in the Lord, however, I hadn’t given my whole life to Him completely. I came to college at the age of 18, and I fell away from God in the blink of an eye. My heart grieved silently as I fell further and further from His Grace and betrayed Him time and time again. But then, at 20 years old, I turned back to the Lord and now, I’m his faithful servant! Hallelujah! |
