The Youth Proverbs (Vol. 10): "Radix malorum est cupiditas,(The love of money is the root of all evil)"

It answers all things,
Yet, in it's heart is all evil,
When you ear money, your ears starch up.
Chai! Money!
Thou youth! You are vulnerable to two,
Just two and one of the two,
Either Lord or Mammon,
The two have the keys to your heart.

Wait! Did I say Mammon?
Yes, Mammon is the money,
In Lord is the wealth and peace,
Oh! Peace is wealth.

Mammon buys your soul and gives you the money,
The Lord restores your soul and gives you the wealth,
But greed, greed the stronghold of Mammon,
Mammon comes with greed.

You need the wealth,You need your soul.
It's not without the greed, you want the riches,
You get the riches, you loose your soul.
What then is your gain?

Any and every youth wants the cash,
Many care less how it comes,
All they want is the luxury,
They can't afford to bow for the Lord.

Nine of ten bow daily for Mammon,
One of ten bows daily for the Lord,
In Mammon is greed,
In Lord is the love of integrity.

Radix malorum est cupiditas,
(The love of money is the root of all evil)
Integritas est radix autem bonitatem,
(Integrity is the root of goodness).

Blood everywhere in the name of I want,
Abomination in the name of I want,
Fraud in the air, all for notes,
Every youth wants the notes.

The integrity pays than money,
You hate your own soul when you love money,
You love your own soul when you love the wealth,
You gain your soul, you gain the wealth in the Lord.

In a Nutshell;
Many of the nefarious acts raging in our various societies are traced to "greed"(The Love of Money). This is not at all new, but as old as Adam and Eve in their falling state. And so common amidst the youth. Few aged people run after money, but the youth want the money at all costs.
The so called saved are not excluded in this matter, many for the love money left the Lord that love them. No wonder paul warned the young Evangelist, Timothy to flee from "the love of money". (1Timothy 6:5-11).
My Advocacy to dearly youths is, Let only the Lord in into your heart and not Mammon. This your youthful season is not a time to chase after money, it is a time to cling to the Lord and He will out of His aboundance bless you with wealth and peace. Cling to Him and be deligent. Your deligence fuels your integrity.
