But woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your comfort. Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will go hungry. Luke's counterside to the Beatitudes. Blessings on the poor and hungry. Woes on the rich and full.
Not because wealth is evil. But because fullness now might mean emptiness later. Because comfort can distract from God. Because having everything here might mean having missed the kingdom. That's sobering for those of us with privilege.
