When Jesus told the rich young ruler to sell all that he had and give the money to the poor, he wasn't talking about wealth. He wasn't talking about the evils of being rich.
He was talking about simplicity.
The more I have, the harder it is for me to live a simple life. The more I have, the harder it is to let go of what I have. The more keys I have on my keychain, the more complicated my life becomes. My possessions begin to possess me.
To live a simple life is not as simple as it looks.
