A friend blogged about this article below, and I was so emotional while reading it.

I wasn’t sure at first if it was just those crazy pregnancy hormones kicking in, or if it was just that I knew it was so true & felt so relieved knowing that I got it.
Or that I was at a point in my life where I understood what the writer was saying & my proudest moment…that I’d started to live it.
When I started my “spiritual journey” over a year ago now…the contents of this article were some of the things I struggled with the most & still do at times.
I’d write about what the author says, but she wrote it so beautifully I hope you’ll click on the link and read it for yourself. Its on a Catholic website, but I can assure you that anyone will find it comforting.
Hebrews 13:5
Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, ”I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
Luke 12:15
And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”
