Rich Man
What’s your first love?
Transcript
This is hope with God. I am Wendy Palau. There was a young man in the Bible. You can read about him in Matthew 19. He came to Jesus and he asked him, what good thing must I do to get eternal life? Jesus told him to sell all he had and follow him. The man walked away sad because he was a very rich man. You see, this man obeyed the rules. He wanted to know what he could do to have life. But Jesus understood that his wealth was the most precious thing to him. So he went away empty. What's your first love? Often it can be a good thing. But Jesus says, I want to be your first love. Release what you think is giving you life. It won't last. It won't satisfy you. I offer you true, authentic, eternal life. Always remember, there is hope with God.
