We suppose that those who live in luxury have an unfair advantage, and yet these are the very people who are disadvantaged in the things that really count. Jesus revealed that although those blessed with earthly riches seem to have it easy, it is particularly hard for them to enter the kingdom and be blessed with heavens riches (Matthew 19:23-24). Yes, at any moment those enjoying earthly comfort could choose to give away their riches and become equal to those whose poverty makes them more likely candidates for spiritual riches. Nevertheless, those we think have it so easy, find it so hard to free themselves from the addiction to the soft life that threatens their eternity. So is it better to be born rich or impoverished? It is the meek, the lowly, the humble who will be lifted high. It is those who are despised on earth who will be honored in heaven.
