CHILDREN COLUMN
INTRODUCTION:
Jesus is a teacher. He does not want us to go astray so he keeps teaching His children who care to listen to Him. In today’s gospel, we hear the story of the rich fool. He is a fool because he believes everything he has achieved is by his power, he forgets the benevolence of God
PRAYER:
God, give me the grace to appreciate your gifts and help me to be generous with what I have so that I can be rich in your sight.
WHAT TO DO (ACTION):
Do not be proud of your achievements; instead of be thankful to God for what you have achieved.
QUESTIONS:
- Why did Jesus tell the parable of the rich fool?
- Why did Jesus ask us to beware of every kind of greed?
