There are times when God asks us to do something that may seem ridiculous to others and even to us. Leave a comfortable, secure job for work that feeds the soul but leaves us worried whether we can pay our bills. Forgive an abuser who hasn’t acknowledged the abuse. Buy...

Resumen de la Escritura

While Jeremiah is in prison, God tells him to buy a field. This transaction shows that in the future life will return to normal. It is an “enactment prophecy,” where a prophecy is given through actions instead of just words. The psalmist rejoices in the protection that God provides to the faithful. God is a fortress, a covering, and a shield. Paul admonishes his readers not to fall into materialism. The love of money, not money itself, is the root of all kinds of evil, and those obsessed with it build their hopes on shifting sands. Jesus tells a parable about a rich man who has fallen into that very trap. Only after death, when it is too late, does he realize his mistake.
