I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? (Luke 12:19‑20)
But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Luke 12:31)
What will it profit when life here is o’er,
   Though great worldly wisdom I gain,
If, seeking knowledge, I utterly fail
   The wisdom of God to obtain?
What will it profit, when life here is o’er,
   Though gathering riches and fame,
If, gaining the world, I lost my own soul,
   And in heaven unknown is my name?
