We are loaded down with too many good things, more than we could ever need, while others are desperate for a small loaf.

Lukewarm people give money to charity and to the church....as long as it doesn't impinge on their standard of living. If they have a little extra and it is easy and safe to give, they do so. After all, God loves a cheerful giver, right?
