If you have spent any time at all reading the Gospels then you know that Jesus asked a lot of questions. In fact more often than not he would respond to questions with a question of his own. He did this to get us thinking and to come to the answers on our own. He knew that they mean more that way and we are more likely to both accept the answer and remember it.
The question I'm sharing with you today comes from Mark 8:36, "What good is it for a man to gain the whole world yet forfeit his soul?" Come on admit it, it's a great question. It is one that should quickly return us to a proper perspective on life.
So what are you chasing today? What will you chase after tomorrow? Where do you pour out your time, energy, talents, abilities, and strength? Are you trying to gain the world or are you building treasures in heaven? It really is a great question.
