注釋
（說“運氣”，我沒有把神排除在外，因為經上說：“簽放在懷裏，定事由耶和華。”【箴言 16:33】神決定每一個隨機事件的結果。）這個財主沒有把他自己看成是神的仆人，也沒有把他所擁有的資源看做是神委托給他的責任。反之，他把自己看做是被事奉的對像，把他所擁有的資源看做是自己的玩具。這是一種貪婪的態度，這在富人中是很常見的。他們的目標往往是盡早退休，然後享清福，或做滿足他們欲望的事。然而如果我們擁有的越多，我們的責任就越大。在神面前富足不是指在物質上貧乏，而是指用神委托給我們的資源去為神的國盡力。
雖然我不知道有關的統計數據，但我聽說很多人如果在退休之後失去了目的感和在生活中有用的感覺，不久就會死去。因為我們是被造來做仆人的──就如基督在世上的時候一樣。當我們離開了我們的目的之後，我們就失去了我們的生命。
“并且他替眾人死，是叫那些活著的人不再為自己活，乃為替他們死而復活的主活。” 【歌林多後書 5:15】

A rich man's field produced a big gain
But what would he do with all that grain?
"I have no place to store my crops."
I filled my barns all the way to their tops.
I'll tear them down and build ones bigger
And then retire while I still have vigor
I'll take life easy and bask by the pool
But God said to him, "You are a fool!
Tonight you'll die, you'll go on the shelf
Then who will get what you prepared for yourself?"
So it will be for those who hoard
Things for themselves but not for the Lord
