~ Paul the Apostle~ Gal. 5:13-14. ~ "For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."
We are a people of excess, We have more than we need, spend more than we have, take more than we deserve and hold on to it all. We are that Dragon who sleeps upon his hoard, laid up in his lair waiting to devour any who dare to take from him even the smallest of trinkets.
We believe that we are measured by the size of our hoard, but I say to you that we are measured by our generosity to others. If you are to do nothing else today do this; Give of yourself to another. Be blessed today my friends and remember the gift that was given to you over 2000 years ago.
