Where is your heart truly anchored: in possessions, or in persons and in God? In this meditation, Fr. Paul Donlan reflects on Christian detachment by contrasting a consumerist culture that prioritizes wealth and possessions with the Gospel vision that places God and people at the center of life. Drawing on Scripture, especially Christ’s warning that life does not consist in the abundance of possessions, he emphasizes that material goods are meant to serve persons, not replace them as our ultimate treasure. Fr. Donlan highlights the dignity of the human person, the example of the Holy Family, and the call to poverty of spirit—not as rejection of ambition or success, but as an inner freedom that enables generosity, solidarity, and authentic love rooted in Christ.
