Heavenly Father, I learn many things from the story that Jesus shares about the rich man who took no thought for his life after death. Lord, one thing I learn is, it is a picture of so many who live for the here and now. They store up treasures that don’t transfer to eternity and dismiss the truths that do prepare us for eternity. May this illustration bring comfort and peace of heart to those who suffer in this present life, as Lazarus did. Jesus said in Matthew, "So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today." Jesus, lead us to the Gospel of Your innocent shed blood, the cross, Your resurrection and our repentance. Praise You Jesus. May they be reminded of the joyous life yet to come where there is no pain, sorrow, or alienation? And help us to be faithful to warn others to prepare not just for this temporal life, but for eternal life. In the name of Jesus, we pray, Amen.
