"For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world but lose his own soul?" Mark 8:36
Man's soul has only two ultimate destinations: with God or away from God. Given the limited time we have on earth, (we are lucky if we live up to 80 years old), we must not get caught up in pursuing the temporal things of this world and neglect those that have eternal value. We may end up rich and famous but if we have not developed a personal relationship with God, our ultimate destination will be on the wrong side of eternity (i.e.hell). The wealth and fame we have enjoyed carelessly is fleeting but the final destination that awaits us is permanent. Make the right choices. :)
And I will give them a heart to know Me, for I am the LORD; and they will be My people, and I will be their God, for they will return to Me with their whole heart – Jeremiah 24:7 (NIV)
