Being Whole

This Sunday I am reflecting on Luke 12.

I've often heard in my years of church work that if we just get people's hearts right then the money will follow. But that's really just the opposite of Jesus' teaching. Jesus says to get your wallet right and then hearts will follow. To whom do you want your heart to belong? Then put your money there.

Getting head and heart together makes you together, a whole person. In the last many years much talk has centered on being a whole person. Being whole means having all the different parts of you in conversation. By integrating or incorporating all these different parts of you, you can accept that all of you comes from God. Likewise getting head and heart and money together is one of those conversations.
