After the Rich Young Man goes away sad, Jesus tells his disciples twice that it will be difficult for the rich to enter the Kingdom of God. The possession of riches comes with the danger of relying on them too much, seeking our happiness in them, falling into a kind of practical idolatry. The solution to this is detachment or poverty of spirit. Detachment frees our hearts to love God and others. https://comeawaybyyourselves.com
