Rich and Poor: Just as Lydia financed the ministry of Jesus we each need someone who is sponsoring our vision and providing for the fulfillment of God's call on our lives. In Luke 16:19-31 we see the biblical counterpart of Lydia in Jesus' parable about the poor man Lazarus. We must not be like the rich man in this parable who never gave a second thought about Lazarus while on this earth. 03.22.2009
