Text: Luke 18:18-26 (NIV):
"18:18. A certain ruler asked him, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"
18:19. "Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone.
18:20. You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and mother.'"
18:21. "All these I have kept since I was a boy," he said.
18:22. When Jesus heard this, he said to him, "You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."
18:23. When he heard this, he became very sad, because he was a man of great wealth.
18:24. Jesus looked at him and said, "How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
18:25. Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
18:26. Those who heard this asked, "Who then can be saved?"
18:27. Jesus replied, "What is impossible with men is possible with God."
SHOWER (Reflection):
Our God has proven that indeed there is nothing impossible before Him. People around him were astonished when He commanded the 'wiseman' to sale his property and follow. Once you're in Christ Jesus, you have nothing. God is with us. It is also showing why is important to give. If you don't do, you will likely be losing them at hospitals and others.
