Willie Sutton

The statement “Because that’s where the money is” is the famous, though possibly apocryphal (legendary with doubtful authenticity), answer attributed to notorious American bank robber Willie Sutton.  Now Willie spent more than half of his life in jail. The longest period of his legal employment lasted eighteen months. My question is, “Was a life of crime worth the trip?”

Here’s something profitable to seek with all your heart.

Proverbs 8:19 

My fruit is better than gold, even fine gold, and My yield than choice silver.

Psalm 119:127 

Therefore, I love Your commandments above gold, above fine gold.

Willie never did find out where real wealth resided, but you can. Give it some thought.
