Write a Book

Does it matter whether of not Caleb knows how to write? He is writing a book that only he can read.
He doesn't even need a ghost writer. Pretty clever, isn't he?

I would imagine he is writing about his trucks, but I have to admit, I don't know. I can't read....his writing..


I've been saving a piece by Max Lucado that I think is very relevant in today's world. It is about greed. We hear people accusing the rich of this daily. It seems clear to me that one does not have to be rich to be greedy. Let's look at what Lucado says about it. To do that without missing his point, I am going to quote it exactly.

"Jesus had a definition for greed. He called it the practice of measuring life by possessions! Greed equates a person's worth with a person's purse. You got a lot equals you are a lot. You got a little equals you are little.  The consequence of such a philosophy is predictable. If you are the sum of what you own, then by all means own it all. No price is too high. No payment is too much. But God's foremost rule of finance is that we own nothing. We are managers, not owners. Stewards, not landlords.  Maintenance people, not proprietors.

Our money in not ours, it is His.  It's not as if God kept the future a secret. One glance at a cemetery should remind us that everyone dies.  The Bible says 'The Lord owns the world and everything in it- the heavens, even the highest heavens are his! (Psalm 24:1).  This includes our money."

We should be trying to think about our earthly possessions from God's point of view. It should affect our shopping habits and our giving. After all, our God has been generous to this nation.
