There's truth to what you say. Being rich has been very hard on me.
1 Timothy 6:3-9 ESV
3If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound[SUP]
b[/SUP] words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness,
4he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions,
5and constant friction among people who are depraved in mind and deprived of the truth, imagining that godliness is a means of gain.
6But godliness with contentment is great gain,
7for we brought nothing into the world, and[SUP]
c[/SUP] we cannot take anything out of the world.
8But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content.
9But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.
10For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.
Matthew 6:19-21 ESV
19“
Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust[SUP]e[/SUP] destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
