As I was reading this, I was thinking of another verse where Jesus said that where your treasure is, that's where your heart will be as well (Matt 6:21). If what we treasure in this life is money, then obtaining it will be our highest priority, and all our time and energy will be spent in that endeavor. The love of money makes us unable to focus on the things with real, eternal importance. However, if we treasure God above all other things, then our relationship with Him will be where our time and energy is focused, and our life will be balanced correctly.

I used to think that money was the root of all evil, but it's not money... It's the LOVE of money. When people love money, they do all the wrong things to get it. A prositute loves money so much that they literally sacrifice their body for it. Someone else who loves money might kill for it. So, the love of money causes us to sin to get money. We cannot love money... And if we love money, then we cannot love God.

If we love money, we cannot love God because God requires something the total opposite of what money requires. The law of money is to kill to get it, the law of God is that thou shalt not kill.
