I have collected, bit by bit, a great store. The harvest was large.
Along one fence line is wood stacked, ready for many seasons of winter.
I have more than enough.
❖
Why, Lord, do I keep collecting? Why do I hoard what I have? My neighbor needs food and heat.
Let me freely give what was so freely given to me through your grace, Lord.

Why do I keep collecting?
