The rich man, who is called in Scripture the rich fool, made great mistakes. His first mistake was in saying,
“My fruits, and my goods.”
They were not his. He was a farmer, and all His possessions came straight from the hand of God. He might easily look up, and say,
“From Thee cometh every good and perfect gift; Thine they are, and lent to me.” But no; he made a terrible mistake; he called them his.
Have you learned to give thanks for all things unto God? Have you learned that even you are “not your own?”
