The Bent-Knee TimeEXPENSIVE SELFISHNESS
Selfishness is expensive. Sin comes high. It costs time, strength, heartache, and bitter tears. Jacob was terribly frightened when he was willing to part with all that valuable livestock, the choicest he had, representing long years of sweat and skill and sleepless nights. That was the rarest wealth to him. It was for just such wealth he had cheated and deceived and lied. Sin’s charges are terribly high. Selfishness is awfully expensive. Better stop before you start.
