To get rid of a spiritual problem, we need to pull it up by its spiritual root. To pull up roots, we're going to have to be willing to get our hands dirty, to make some sacrifices that provides long-term benefits instead of short-term, refinanced gains. God is willing to help us, to provide the tools we need to weed out those areas where our desire for money is spoiling our fruit of the Spirit.

Or maybe they just accept that it's wrong in God's eyes, although not in their own, and they'll worry about sorting it out later.

God promises you a way out. Find that way out, and take it.

One works hard to prop up an illusion that sucks the life out of them, and the other works hard to make their home a place that restores them, nurtures them, and gives life to others.

Training is an active, dynamic process lived out daily in all areas of life- not a rote exercise in memorizing verses and going to church every week.

When you reach out to God humbly, you'll find that He's already reaching out to you.

When something small loudly demands all our attention, its noise often drowns out the whisper of what's enormously important.
