This Belongs To You

This Belongs To You

“Why should I give him back the money? Error or not, it would have been mine if I still had a job.” “I don’t have to give it back to you. It’s mine now, you dropped it.”

Give to each other what rightfully belongs to another. God reminds us of our human temptations. Know God’s word well and be wise in your daily decisions.

Inspired by Mark 12:13-17

Then they sent to Jesus some Pharisees and some Herodians to trap him in what he said. And they came and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are sincere, and show deference to no one; for you do not regard people with partiality, but teach the way of God in accordance with truth. It is lawful to pay taxes to the emperor, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not?” But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, “Why are you putting me to the test? Bring a denarius and let me see it.” And they brought one. Then he said to them, “Whose head is this, and whose title?” They answered, “The emperor’s.” Jesus said to them, “Give to the emperor the things that are the emperor’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” And they were utterly amazed at him.
