O Lord God of Israel

"Every day will I bless You, and I will praise Your Name forever and ever."  (Psalm 145:2)

"LIFE IS MORE THAN................."

"Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing."  (Luke 12:23)

I'm sure you have heard the cliche, or perhaps, even said it, "Food on the table, clothes on our backs, and a roof over our heads?"  Of course, we all need these.  Yet when people say that as though this is the core reason for living and working, they are reducing human existence to the level of the beasts of the fields.

I am not going into a long writing on this, but it behooves all of us to keep this deep in our very being, "Life is more (so much more) than food, and the body is more than clothing."  Jesus gives us the foundation of our text in verse 21, "So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."

Father, in Jesus' Name, continue to show me the, "more than."  Amen.

When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
Hebrews 12:2
