God called him a fool for putting his trust in material things and said his soul would be called into account that very night. Then God asked who would own all the things which seemed to cause him problems. It is certain the ones who inherited them wouldn't have problems without tearing down all the buildings. They never do, for accumulated goods are usually distributed among many people. Of course the poor, rich man wouldn't have had all his problems if he had distributed his surplus to the needy which surrounded him. In fact, he could have enjoyed life to the full- est, for the greatest joys in life are in giving, rather than receiving. Hoarding God's blessings is a form of slavery, but to give with a bountiful hand is a Godlike privilege. —Mel Reese Used by Permission
