Sometimes we see that people will go against God’s laws and do almost anything to acquire money and riches instead of putting God 1st and trusting that He will supply all our needs and that His way is the best way for us.

Some people worship money and don’t know how to handle it wisely. They get into deep debt, owe taxes and be in despair. Some gain money illegally. Some people think money is all they need without God.

I think it may come in the way more with possessions and having trust in them rather Jesus. LIke buying house and thinking that it will give you security rather than being able to be content with what you have. P.s it is nothingwrong with having or wanting a house , but sometimes we can become obsesssive with thoughts about wanting it, ( i had done in the past) where we cant even focus on Him.

I see it in some of the young people in my church, who, after they had graduated and started work in the world outside, gradually phased out of coming to church. The excuse usually is that work keeps them busy.
