Peace of Mind

Are you experiencing the pressures of a foreclosure, bankruptcy, overwhelming creditors? If so, be sure to bookmark this blog and return often for words of encouragement and helpful tips from someone who has walked in your shoes. Remember.....stay encouraged!

Sometimes individuals come across our paths with life changing messages. While sitting at lunch with a certain deipnosophist, I was enlighten by a certain concept. It's the res nullius of worldly possessions. My friend shared two amazing statements with me.

1. One shouldn't attempt to hold on to anything that tends to cause added stress in one's life.
2. Everything in our seen world, given enough time returns to it's most basic form which is dirt.

Understanding the concept of res nullius affords us with peace of mind. Only God owns everything. Become free from the bondage of worldly possessions. One should invest in areas where moth and rust can't corrupt. By investing in one's spiritual growth and the spiritual growth of loved ones, the door way to eternal possessions can be opened.

So remember two things while enduring the stress and disappointment of losing worldly possessions.

1. This too shall pass
2. What does it profit to gain the whole world and lose one's soul?
