“Don’t be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom. Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don’t grow old, a treasure in the heavens that doesn’t fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”
Luke 12:32-34 (WEB)
A Fearless Start to Your Week
In Luke 12, Jesus speaks to His disciples, teaching them about trust in God's provision and the pursuit of His Kingdom over earthly wealth. This passage follows His parable of the rich fool and is part of His broader message about readiness and stewardship. The phrase 'little flock' conveys a sense of tenderness and care, contrasting human fear with the divine generosity of the Father who delights in giving the Kingdom. Reflect on where your heart truly lies today. Consider setting aside a small amount of your time or resources to help someone in need, creating a 'purse' that holds treasures not subject to decay or theft.
