Second Chances

There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day.
And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores,
who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man’s table;
even the dogs would come and lick his sores.
Luke 16:19–21


Throughout the gospels, and particularly in Luke, Jesus consistently focuses on the issue of money and wealth.
Last week we heard Jesus say “you cannot serve God and wealth.”
This week we have the parable the rich man and Lazarus.
The rich man is really, really rich and Lazarus is extremely poor, yet they live as neighbors.
This is a challenging lesson from Jesus that calls us to be good stewards with what we have been given
but also that we must see the humanity we share with those living in poverty.
