Let's Go Back to the Bible

How big are your barns?

Do you remember the story of the rich man who “yielded plentifully” and made plans to build bigger barns to store his goods (see Luke 12:15-21)? I wonder what kind of barns we have, and I wonder how big our barns are and if we have ever needed to build bigger ones.

Do you have a “barn” that houses your faith? How big is that barn? Have you ever needed to pull down your “faith barn,” in order to build a bigger barn, or are you still using the same barn?

Do you have a “barn” that houses your love for God and love for your brethren? How big is that barn? Have you ever needed to pull down your “love barn,” in order to build a bigger barn, or are you still using the same barn you’ve always had?

Do you have a “barn” that houses your thanksgiving? How big is it? Have you ever needed to pull down your “thanksgiving barn” to build a bigger one, or are you still using the same one?

Are you growing as a Christian? Or have you been “about the same size” for a while?
