"What does it profit a woman if she gains the whole world but loses her soul?"

We live in a society with "stuff" that cries out to us.

Buy me! Rent me! Bigger is better. Brand names are elite. Platinum is better than gold. Acquire! Get it now!

We could spend our entire day working towards stuff that dazzles our eyes with bling-bling and glitter. We could spend our entire week yearning for a fancier car. We could spend an entire year thirsting after the bigger house with a pool in the backyard. We could spend an entire lifetime desiring what we do not have!

Do we really want to spend our energy acquiring more stuff? Do you really want to exchange your time and energy for things?

Consider spending more time reflecting on the the kind of things that last. Clothes go out of style. Cars get dinged in the parking lots. Houses need upkeep. And besides, you can't take them with you.

Why spend your time gaining what the world has to offer when it really doesn't satisfy?

Choose to spend your time pursuing the things that matter. The things that last. Love. Kindness. Healthy relationships. Peace. Forgiveness. Joy. Patience. Gentleness. The soul is satisfied with these.
