Wisdom of Yore

Having earthly blessings is not evil. For some who have a calling towards austere living, they may stay away from riches. This was true in the lives of Saints who lived a hermit-like life as St Francis of Assisi.

For it is said, ‘It is difficult for rich people to enter heaven. But with God all things are possible.'(Mt 19:23-26)

Some Saints like St Louis IX were Kings. Yet they did not lack anything in serving God. We should be faithful in a Christian life along with what we are called for.
