What good would it be?

In Matthew 16:26 it says, "What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul?" What does this mean to you? How does this verse affect our lives? I believe it can be very easy to get wrapped up in how much stuff we have? Who has the newest "toys"? Comparing what you have to what others have? Our greatest sense of peace is not in what we have but in who we have...Jesus. How have you seen this become a reality in your own life? The book uprising on page 35 points out clearly that we cannot follow Jesus and remain the same so how are you different? How is your life different than when before you came to know Jesus?
