Yet Possessing All Things The Secret to Living Spiritually


Posted November 26, 2018 by clararobert

We already possess so much... indeed, everything of true worth.

 
Paul, I believe, was trying to win over the Corinthians to the Way - that way of Christ i.e. to model for them how believers of 'the Way' should behave and interact with God, each other and the world. It's no different for us.

Why then do we consider what we don't have as superior opposed to that which we do have? I suppose it's because we get to see what everyone else has far more easily than what we see we have. We forget in an unguarded moment's nonchalance - an altogether too common human response to life - the very many thousands of common blessings we really do have.And 'very many thousands' is no exaggeration! I really think we've just never learned to count this way. The keys to life are already in our possession; we've already arrived, and particularly so if we call ourselves saved of God.

Restoring Right Perspective.Correct sight of these very many blessings, of course, all depends on our perspective.How can a starving person in some third world country be happier, owning next to nothing, than the millionaire who's plotting their suicide? There is such a confounding dichotomy across the face of the globe with regard to this. The Western world, for a large part, is at a stark despair with itself, thinking, i.e. erroneously, it has it all right.
