What did We Learn?
- Being “rich” isn’t what the world thinks it is.
- Being rich isn’t how much money you have, it’s knowing Jesus, having friends, and being filled with a kindness that gives itself away.
Let's Pray
Dear Lord,
Help us to not look at what we have to show us whether we are rich or poor.
Instead, let us look and see if we have Jesus in our heart and life.
Only then are we truly rich.
In Jesus’ Name we pray.
Amen.
