are you a rich Christian? (31 days of enough)

Your comments from yesterday are blowing me away …

For those of you just joining us today, yesterday I wrote 7 Quick Ways to Know if You’re Rich because I often have to combat a faux ‘poverty mindset’ which leads me to feeling stingy, anxious, and unjoyful. And I invited others to add to my list. You should go read them … really. It will make you feel extremely wealthy.

I was thinking about your comments when I went to the grocery store yesterday. As I was waiting in line, I looked around at all the super wealthy people. Checking phone messages, drinking coffee and reading the paper with dogs in tow, pushing baskets loaded up with food, etc.

Then I walked to the parking lot and saw the sea of cars. Got in mine, music playing, air-conditioning humming and I thought …

If I believe in God’s sovereignty and favor and all that razzamatazz, then I am rich for a reason.

I didn’t pick the nation of my birth, didn’t work the system to have parents that loved me, cared for me and paid for my education. I certainly haven’t done anything extraordinary to be the recipient of all this blessing. And yet … I am.  And so I wondered:

What is the right response because of all this blessing? What kind of attitudes and actions should we have toward God and others as ‘rich Christians’?
