Pope Francis The Possessions of ones heart









A heart that is preoccupied with the desire to possess is a heart that is full of this desire to possess, but it lacks God


But considering the many people who live in precarious conditions, or in a misery that offends their dignity, these words of Jesus might seem abstract, if not illusory. But in reality they are more actual than ever! They remind us that you cannot serve 2 masters: God and wealth. So long as everyone is out to get whatever he can for himself, there will never be justice. We must understand this well! So long as everyone is out to get whatever he can for himself, there will never be justice. If, however, trusting in God’s providence, we seek his kingdom together, then no one will lack what they need to live with dignity.
 
Pope Francis March 2nd 2014 Sunday Address
