Today's Sunday Gospel, Luke 12:13-21, New Catholic Bible.
Someone in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me." Jesus answered him, "
Friend, who appointed me to be a judge and arbitrator in your regard?" After this, he said to the crowd, "
Take care to be on your guard against all kinds of greed. Life does not depend upon an abundance of one's possessions."
Then he told them a parable: "There was a wealthy man whose land yielded an abundant harvest. He thought to himself, 'What shall I do, for I do not have sufficient space to store my crops?' Then he said, 'This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, where I will store my grain and other produce, and I shall say to myself, "Now you have an abundance of goods stored up for many years to come. Relax, eat, drink, and be merry."' But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your life will be required of you. And who then will get to enjoy the fruit of your labors?' That is how it will he for the one who stores up treasure for himself yet fails to become rich in the sight of God."
The Word of the Lord.
PRAISE TO YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST!!
