    In the story of the prodigal son, the older son completely missed seeing all of his own blessings because of his clouded vision towards his brother.

    Luke 15:25-32 Pray I'm guessing that you've probably heard this story that Jesus is telling to the Pharisees of the day.

    Parables are easy to understand but hard to live.

    The Parable of the Rich Fool Luke 12:13-21 There is nothing like a simple store to illustrate a point.

     | 19,140 views

    All of us do it. We compare ourselves to others and by doing so we expose ourselves to one of two things----pride or low self esteem. neither is healthy. Paul teaches us in this passage to keep our eyes on the prize not on other people.
