"For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame; who set their mind on earthly things." (Phil. 3:18-19)

Truly, the things which disturb us reveal much about our interests. Let us not be more disturbed about problems in the material realm than those in the spiritual.
