    Remember always the beauty with which our souls came into this world – the gifts, the talents, and strengths -- are to accomplish the will of God for our lives in this world.

    In today's Gospel reading, Jesus speaks powerful words about our soul, raising the question of what is there if we gain the whole world at the cost of losing it.
