Getting Good At Forgetting God

Not only does Jesus tell us what the problem is (our hearts being far from Him), but He goes ahead and shows us as well. As the great shepherd Jesus exposes the hearts of those around Him. Jesus asks us to identify with two very practical and relevant issues: authority and money. How we deal with and approach these two issues gives us great insight into where our treasure is. Christ, as the great Shepherd opens our chest and allows us to see for ourselves just how close or how far our hearts are from Him.
