A leap of faith is like a leap of insanity, but an acceptance of love provides wisdom beyond the intellect.<br /><br />As for the second point, people who hoard the gifts of God are not manifesting the gifts of the spirit. Pride comes before a fall. If they keep it up, they will just become like a vaudeville act instead of someone alive with the power of God. If they love fame and notoriety more than God, that is the master whom they serve.<br /><br />I encounter people like this and when you try to warn them, they get very angry. Are these those who have the word take root and grow, but the cares of this world choke them out in the end? <br /><br />You try to show them a way to grow around the weeds but they don't listen.
