"Always remember that at the Judgement we are judged for loving Him, or failing to love Him, in the least person."
—Archbishop Anastasios of Albania
The meek man is not a human mouse afflicted with a sense of his own inferiority. He has accepted God's estimate of his own life: In himself, nothing; In God, everything. He knows well that the world will never see him as God sees him and he has stopped caring.-- A.W. Tozer
"Always remember that at the Judgement we are judged for loving Him, or failing to love Him, in the least person."

The one who follows Christ in solitary mourning is greater than the one who praises Christ amid the congregation of men.
—St. Isaac the Syrian
When we surrender every area of our lives-- including our finances--to God, then we are free to trust Him to meet our needs. But if we would rather hold tightly to those things that we possess, then we find ourselves in bondage to those very things.

God's promises never fail
There is no room for God in him who is full of himself. --Martin Buber
But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him. James 1:5
You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them. Desmond Tutu.
Never be overwhelmed by decisions, just consider the right ones and your options will be far fewer.
There can be no doubt that this possessive clinging to things is one of the most harmful habits in the [christian] life. Because it is so natural, it is rarely recognized for the evil that it is. But its outworkings are tragic.

"He who busies himself with the sins of others, or judges his brother on suspicion, has not yet even begun to repent or to examine himself so as to discover his own sins..."
—St. Maximos the Confessor (Third Century on Love no. 55)
But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him. James 1:5
Even if all we have is a little, the Lord desires us to be joyfully generous, so that He will have for His church an abundance for every good work. Let us not be selfish or deceived by money. In a real sense, money is not a blessing; it's a test.

"I have but one passion - it is He, it is He alone. The world is the field and the field is the world; and henceforth that country shall be my home where I can be most used in winning souls for Christ."
