What profit is there for one to gain the whole world lose or forfeit himself? St. Luke 9:25
It’s possible to accumulate so much of the world That you lose your own self We expend so much time Effort Psychic energy trying to fortify Our lives with things of this world Of course Everyone has a right Clothing Shelter Education Rest and restful creation Personal safety It’s possible to get to a point Where these things mother our deepest Truest selves Be careful of getting too much of a good thing Pray for the wisdom to recognize when enough is enough As long as there are people who don’t have anywhere near enough Of course There will always be opportunities to share Because nobody deserves too much of a good thing Lord, Father Christ, help me to see when enough is enough 4202014
