Read:12/12/12 Is The Absolute Meaning Of Perfection
I realize that it all boils down to my greed and the greed of everyone who I could visit this curse on. It’s enough to destroy some. Now, my stomach is getting queasy and I am earnestly praying that I don’t win. I decide instead to heed the advice that Paul gave to Timothy when he said, “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.” (1 Timothy 6:10,11)
