The man who has God for his treasure has all things in One. Many ordinary treasures may be denied him, or if he is allowed to have them, the enjoyment of them will be so tempered that they will never be necessary to his happiness. Or if he must see them go, one after one, he will scarcely feel a sense of loss, for having the Source of all things he has in One all satisfaction, all pleasure, all delight. Whatever he may lose he has actually lost nothing, for he now has it all in One, and he has it purely, legitimately and forever.

This is a beautiful quote. Pure Truth. I only wish it were easier to remember on a daily basis. I find myself remembering such truths only when I am hurt, failling, and running back to God after relying on myself and seeking satisfaction outside of His will.
