Leonard Ravenhill

It is only necessary to seek one thing: to be with Jesus. The man who remains with Jesus is rich, even if he is poor with regard to material things.

Ignatius Bryanchaninov

Herman Melville

Earthly possessions are not what you came here to gather. Do not worry about your earthly possessions. Place your attention on your heavenly goal - the evolution of your soul - and you will find peace even while on earth.
