Oh, How I Would Like A Poor

We Need To Proclaim The Gospel On Every Street Corner, Preaching The Good News Of The Kingdom And Healing, Even With Our Preaching, Every Kind Of Disease And Wound.

The Culture Of Prosperity Deadens Us; We Are Thrilled If The Market Offers Us Something New To Purchase; And In The Meantime All Those Lives Stunted For Lack Of Opportunity Seem A Mere Spectacle; They Fail To Move Us.

When We Read About Creation In Genesis, We Run The Risk Of Imagining God Was A Magician, With A Magic Wand Able To Do Everything. But That Is Not So. He Created Human Beings And Let Them Develop According To The Internal Laws That He Gave To Each One So They Would Reach Their Fulfillment.

Let Us Build Our Lives Of Faith On The Rock Who Is Christ.

Not To Share One’s Goods With The Poor Is To Rob Them And To Deprive Them Of Life. It Is Not Our Goods That We Possess, But Theirs.
