Rich and Poor

How seemingly paradoxical that all His children, before knowing Him, are both rich and poor? For though we may read that "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God," we think we're exempt. Our mental perception of riches is defined by our possessions and our money. But each one of us is rich. We're rich in our false gods. And at the same time, we're so poor in spirit and faith. 

 And how wonderful is it that with His love, we may become rich in Him, in Life, in Love, in Truth?
