Sometimes I forget that there is a heaven to be gained and a hell to be shunned. In gaining Christ and being found in him, we must die to sin—how can we live in it any longer? If we pursue treasures on earth, Jesus says it will be easier for the camel to go through the eye of a needle than for us to enter the kingdom of God.
We cannot serve two masters. Either we will hate the one and love the other, or will be devoted to the one and despise the other. We cannot serve both God and the desires of our flesh.
Don't hide your soul in this world.

What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?
Mark 8:36
