Give Jesus more
Hi all you friends far and wide. I am talking to you from MN and I am home from the truth and life thing in CA. I will be putting photos here soon. I want to keep going in James. The views here are mine and I would ask you to read this and consult a pastor for more on James.
9 Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation, 10 but the rich in his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he will pass away. 11 For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits.[1]
James is not happy with some of the people that favor people in the church. We are not to glory in our good because I think we really do not have well in us. If we were going to give God our good compared to his we would have 20 bucks of good and God would have 5 billion. Jesus is the good and the one that we ought to glory in. He is the one that can give us the good we need. We need to be humble and rich in that fact alone. In the span of eternal life anything we have is like dirt because it is all going to fade. Money is nothing because Jesus is the one that gives it to all. I have a new Job thing I might take. It would be a blessing to have but if I get it it would be good to make cash but to serve others.
I look in another passage and find that a person is to prepare for heaven and friends there and not for friends here. Look at the people here and how he makes a way to trick the boss.
Luke 16 He also said to His disciples: “There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and an accusation was brought to him that this man was wasting his goods. 2 So he called him and said to him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be steward.’
3 “Then the steward said within himself, ‘What shall I do? For my master is taking the stewardship away from me. I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg. 4 I have resolved what to do, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.’
5 “So he called every one of his master’s debtors to him, and said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’ 6 And he said, ‘A hundred measures of oil.’ So he said to him, ‘Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.’ 7 Then he said to another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ So he said, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.’ And he said to him, ‘Take your bill, and write eighty.’ 8 So the master commended the unjust steward because he had dealt shrewdly. For the sons of this world are more shrewd in their generation than the sons of light.
9 “And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when you fail, they may receive you into an everlasting home. 10 He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much. 11 Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? 12 And if you have not been faithful in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?
See hoe he made the investments on earth. How much more shall we make investments in Jesus and heaven? Money is a tool for working for Jesus and nothing more. If we invest do it in time in the bible and missions, I want to make a dent in the places they have not heard the Love of Jesus. I want to see more people go to the places that need Jesus and Gods love. It would be good if people gave to missions more and helped the Lord be famous.
13 “No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”0[2]
Jesus is where we serve and love and adore. I pray he will make a. value of me so I am able to serve him more and love him alone. Jesus not only wants to help he is my help
