“Stop making my Father’s house a marketplace!”
—John 2.16
We too often have a faith of exchanges:
I’m good, and God blesses me.
But this is not so.
Everything is a gift.
If your purse has been cleaned out,
if you have nothing to offer,
what then, but your humble need,
and God’s generous grace?
The real challenge is to learn
to overturn your own tables.
