Love It!

Some folks keep a bit more cash around the house than others. I know my bride and I keep some (for emergencies). After reading about the seizure of cash at a home in Colleyville, Texas (almost $6 million) we decided to gather and count our stash. Altogether, after finding two dimes and six pennies in the couch, it came to $11 and 43 cents.

Darren Barbee of the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram reported –“A Colleyville couple had $4 million stashed in a safe at their home. They also had a duffel bag filled with another cool million, convenient for on the go. And who doesn’t keep more than a dozen sealed bags stuffed with tens of thousands of dollars?”

Of course the couple who live there has been charged with a number of “money crimes,” mostly those that deal with the Government not getting “their share,”  but it points up the TRUTH – God said, “But those who want to be rich fall into temptation, a trap, and many foolish and harmful desires, which plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the llove of money is a root of all kinds of evil, and by craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pains.” 1 Timothy 6:9-10

The World wants to say that Believers think “money” is the problem. It isn’t. Money is an inanimate object with no power at all. It is what we llove that creates the problem. Money is a great tool for doing good things. It is when we “fall in love” with it that the problems begin.
