[Faith-talk] prayer request needed

[Linda Mentink]

Hi Beth,

How awful. I'll pray for Blake, and for God's will concerning your 
relationship.

The Bible says that the love of money is the root of evil, not money 
is the root of evil. Money is necessary, but loving it more than God 
is idolatry.

Blessings,

Linda
