From today’s reading...
Add a smiling face to all your gifts, and be cheerful as you dedicate your tithes.” Sirach 35:8
When you learn to love God more than things, you’ll appreciate what you have because you’ll appreciate who made it possible for you to acquire them in the first place, and you’ll realize the temporary, passing nature of everything other than your reputation, your memories, your family, and your soul.
So give freely, generously, and cheerfully, which is the only way to...
Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.
Now go sell something.
