What Does It Profit A Man…

You can have everything the world offers and still lose what matters most

If he gains the whole world and suffers the loss of his own soul.

If he is rude and arrogant but preaches courtesy.

If he seeks admiration but looks down on people.

If he brags of his wealth and fame, but his success depends on the strength and sacrifice of another.

If he always solicits for help, yet does not give a listening ear to others in need.

If he is involved in all manner of evil and dangerous activities and end up being apprehended.

If he despises the poor, yet was raised and clothed by the poor.

If he is not righteous, and yet calls another a sinner.

If he is guilty, but accuses another of committing a crime.

What does it profit a man!

If he treats people with contempt and disdain,  but always wants to be honoured.

If he is selfish and self-centered , but will want to receive from others.

If he wants to be happy but makes others sad

If he is good at making promises, but never fulfils anyone.

If he wastes all his time and energy on useless things and no time at all for something meaningful.

If he cheats to make money, yet he knows that money is insatiable.

If he loses his respect and reputation just for pleasure, yet he knows it can never be retrieved.

If he disregards and disrespects, and even segregates from the people/person who made him who he is.

If he reaps where he does not sow.

If he is a pessimist, yet wants good things from life.

  1. A powerful reminder that having more doesn’t always mean having enough. ❤️ At the end of the day, what matters most to you—wealth, achievements, peace, purpose, or your relationship with God?

  2. Sometimes we spend so much time chasing what looks valuable to the world that we forget to ask what is truly valuable to our souls. What would you choose if you had to choose between worldly success and inner peace?
