Matthew 19:10-28

Jesus said to his disciples, ‘I tell you solemnly, it will be hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Yes, I tell you again, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.’

Well they just have to identify differently on that day and can enter. Just joking my friend.

What is left of value in the end? I asked that question on a very personal level. In the end we stand before God , before ourselves with nothing. For some of us that can be scary. Imagine the first day you realized that daddy or mommy were busy and were not coming.. I remember that day like yesterday when I had to become an adult and start accumulating. Now I hear another call. Have but don’t have. Practice detachment and you will be free.

Jesus says of those who carry titiles and prestige, of those who think they are who they are because of worth or family name. He says to all of us FIND THYSELF and you find happiness, nirvana, heaven!!
