To live a life that is deeply and intimately rooted in God, there is a very important lesson to learn when it comes to money: it’s not about what God wants from us, but what God wants for us. The life God wants for us is one of open-handed generosity and unyielding trust.
There are few other topics Jesus speaks more prolifically about than money. The only one that gets more press is the Kingdom of God. In the Gospel of Luke, 1 out of every 7 verses deals with money, and 11 of the 39 Parables of Jesus deal in one way or another with money. But Jesus doesn’t focus on subject of money because he wants more of your hard earned cash; he does so because he wants more of your uniquely valuable heart. Money is the thing more so than any other that can disorient this relationship.
