9Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts; 10take no bag for the journey, or extra tunic, or sandals or a staff; for the worker is worth his keep.
Matthew 10:9-10 (NIV)
In my pastor's sermon today he read this quote:
We are not human beings on a spiritual journey. We are spiritual beings on a human journey.
That thought brings new meaning to the above passage. Jesus doesn't call us to go out on a spiritual pilgrimage, but to go out on a lifelong journey. He tells us not to worry about material things, but instead to focus on our ministry. Our entire lives are a human journey, but they are not the only part of our existence - just one part.
