People do not get life from the many things they own

Jesus said to them, “People do not get life from the many things they own.

There was a rich man who had some land.

His land grew a very good crop of food. 

He thought to himself, ‘What will I do? I have no place to keep all my crops.’

Then he said, ‘I know what I will do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger barns! I will put all my wheat and good things together in my new barns. 

Then I can say to myself, Rest, eat, drink, and enjoy life!’

But God said to that man, ‘Foolish man! Tonight you will die. So what about the things you prepared for yourself?

This is how it will be for anyone who saves things only for himself.

To God that person is not rich.”
