Riches and Heaven: Where Our Aims Lead

NEVER was a saint a millionaire. Never was a millionaire a saint. Men who get rich aim at getting rich. They live for that. To this one purpose their thoughts and their energies are directed. They make their tastes, their friendships, their pleasures, all yield to this one engrossing object of pursuit. Men who get to Heaven aim at getting to Heaven. To this great object they deliberately consecrate their lives. The highest earthly interest must yield to this.
