"Foolish man" God told him. "Tonight your life will be taken from you" (Luke 12:20).
Strange isn't it? This man had a sense to acquire wealth, but he does not have enough sense to get ready for eternity.
Stranger still, that we make the same mistake. I mean, it is not as if God kept the future a secret. One glance at a cemetery should remind us - everyone dies. One visit to a funeral home should convince us - we don't take anything with us. Hearses pull no U-Hauls.
