SILVER
Next comes the silver. This stands for greed of money or money’s worth, for material objects that can be bought, and even for riches themselves. Or it may be that the offender is not interested in riches themselves but in their ability to give him a position of honor in the eyes of the world. He wants to be considered important and to have adulation or applause. Often he wants to be a“leader,” not because he has a message to give but to be important. He is the victim of egotism. Now this is a base and ignoble sin; an insurmountable barrier across the spiritual path.
For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows (1 Timothy 6:10).
That which we prioritize, make important and focus upon, is that which we become. If our focus is material wealth, position or power, then we lose the spiritual, true power for joy and peace in our lives. Further, we “pierce ourselves through with many sorrows”. We also create an “insurmountable barrier across our spiritual path”; blocking us from our garden. Today, let us choose the garden, let us choose peace.
Live truth,
