The Trial of The Two Princes
Wednesday, January 15, 2025
A king had twin sons. To decide who should inherit the crown, he gave them each the same amount of money. At the end of five years whoever had the greater amount, would have the crown. The first son kept the money - watched it - guarded it - and bought expensive possessions which he kept locked up in his mansion. The other son gave the money away to investors and lived poorly. At the end of five years, the one who saw his treasures every day gained nothing. But the son who had given his money away got it back with interest. In the same way, when you give to the Lord and His work, it looks like you're giving away what you have. But it's the opposite. You're lending. You will get it back with interest. The only way you can have something forever is to give it to God. So give purely and joyfully with all of your heart. Then you'll be greatly blessed in this life and you will have treasures in Heaven. For he who gives to the poor, lends to the Lord. And the Lord shall repay.
