“Then He said to His disciples, ‘Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on. Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.’” (Luke 12:22–23 NKJV)
We live eternally as a spirit. But in this life we have a soul (translated as life in this passage) and we live in a body. This is our three‐part nature (as mentioned in 1Thessalonians 5:23).
Jesus is challenging us to measure the quality of our lives beyond what we can experience with our mind, will and emotions (our soul), and beyond what we can experience with our physical senses (our body). Certainly, relationships are critically important in our lives. And it isn't that prosperity and health are not important.
“Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. “(3 John 1:2 NKJV)
But alone, these are a very shallow measurement of the quality of our lives.
