Life Defined

Life is not defined by what you have, even when you have a lot". Luke 12:15 The Message.
 
'Our happiness and comfort do not depend upon our having a great deal of the wealth of this world. The life of the soul, undoubtedly, does not depend upon it.
The things of the world will not suit the nature of a soul, nor supply its needs, nor satisfy its desires. Even the life of the body and the happiness of that do not consist in an abundance
of these things.' The Matthew Henry Commentary.
 
As he came from his mother's womb, naked shall he return, to go as he came; and he shall take nothing from his labour which he may carry away in his hand. Ecclesiastes 5:15 NKJV.
 
Naked we come into this world, naked we depart. The only thing that we can leave behind is love. Only love is larger than life. And it remains in the hearts of those whom we have loved.
 
Shalom,
Sv
