Balance
There is a tension between economic and moral logic. For example is it possible to be ambitious and also compassionate? Economic logic is Input leads to output, practice makes perfect, effort leads to reward. Moral logic is inverse you have to give to receive, success can lead to the greatest failure – arrogance and pride, failure can lead to the greatest success – humility and learning, to find yourself, you have to lose yourself. Many of these moral paradoxes can be found in the gospel of Matthew. Is part of life trying to find the balance between the two? Invite someone to take a closer look at Christ and his church.
