And I know that envy and selfish ambition is a dead-end road that leads to disorder and wickedness and every kind. Actually, I do much better here than in Toronto, the opulence in Toronto is hard to take. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Resist the devil of consumerism, of worrying about saving for your retirement, of work ethic, of selfish ambition. Jesus tells us not to worry about those things.
Life is more than food and the body more than clothing.
Jesus tells us that God will take care of those things. We need to put our time, energy, attention and focus into spiritual things, into working for the Kingdom of God, into our relationship with God and others. I know a woman named Kathy. Kathy has lived a bizarre life. She moved every year or two looking for spiritual fulfillment.
