Did you know that the Bible doesn't talk about sharing? We all have our Christmas presents now, and we like to teach our kids how to share. But, that's really not what the Bible teaches us.
Luke 6:35: But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
Verse 38 of the same chapter says to: Give. When it says, "lend" it is suggested, commanded, to lend with no expectation of return. Lend, hoping for nothing again.
I think maybe when it's time to "share" our toys, we should "give" our toys. The Bible promises that we will receive reward for doing it.
So, that being said, Can I borrow your iPod?
Just a thought...
