stuff
Thursday
November 19th, Mark 13: 1 As he was leaving
the temple, one of his disciples said to him, "Look, Teacher! What massive
stones! What magnificent buildings!" 2 "Do you see all these
great buildings?" replied Jesus. "Not one stone here will be left on
another; every one will be thrown down." Oh, my!!! How we are impressed by things, big things, little
things, cheap things and expensive things, shiny things, but in the course of
God’s vision for humanity, just things nonetheless. The disciples were impressed with Herod’s
building project; Jesus reminds them that next to eternal blessings, it is just
a pile of stuff. Don’t let the stuff in
this world get all your attention. Keep
your focus on the things eternal, then life here and now will finally come into
focus. Until then, all that stuff is
just….. well……. Stuff.
