Mark Waterfield talk -- It's all about the people!

Lk 12v16-21 - Parable of the Rich fool
When he died- How much did he leave? He left it all!!

What do we build our life on? What do we invest our time in?

Jesus says: 'Love God & love one another'

Jesus was all about the people!!
Jesus had compassion on crowds, healed sick, set people free, spent time with friends...
Jesus died on the cross for People
Jesus minisrty was all about PEOPLE

So many things in life are Temporary- house, car, phone, money, etc..
Investing in People has Eternal significance!!

We need to prioritise in our lives and put- God & people first!Everything else fits around them

Good news of Jesus is for everyone in office, neighbourhood, friends, etc... All people

We can make a difference:
Our actions, words, acts of kindness, generosity, love, etc....
Can make a huge difference in a persons life

Paul says in 1 Thes 2v19-20 - People are my glory/joy/crown
What is your life all about? Possesions or People?

Follow the example of Jesus and live a life all about people!!
