We can trace a thread of greediness through Scripture, from Eve’s temptation in Genesis to the avaricious beast of Revelation. David, a man after God’s own heart, coveted his neighbor’s wife. Even Christ’s disciples jostled for the best seats in eternity.
Greed flows out of a sense of entitlement, saying “I deserve this.” Grace is unmerited favor. Greed and grace cannot fill the same space.
May you be filled with grace.
