On this day of your life, Jessica, I believe God wants you to know...

...that every increased possession loads us with a new

weariness.

John Ruskin said that, and he was right. Life is not

about our physical or material possessions, it is about

the agenda of our soul. When material possessions

serve that agenda, they can be wonderful and are to

be celebrated. But if they come between us and the

soul, then we may very well be delayed on our holy
journey

Our journey is the path back to peace, to harmony,

to deep inner joy, to love, and to God.
