One of the greatest test in life is the "financial test". That moment when steemit and the crypto world at large is experiencing a temporary setback in finance and most steemian leave their legacy behind and all what they have worked for fading because of their love for the money and not the legacy. Hoping that one day crypto would recover and they would be back to do steemit again.
The ideology of putting money first is a very wrong perception, However, money is key to a man's need for him to be comfortable while on earth. Money solves a lot of problems in a man's life but doesn't clean the the stains on one's image. If one puts money first, before legacy, he will be risking it all, as in no time, his image will be tarnished. All what he has worked for will crumble before his eyes.
Before we ever think of opting out of anything, it is always good to take a reflection back to the very beginning. In the very beginning when steemit was launched, the whales saw it as a form of crypto investment and for others, as a platform for rewards(money) measured by effort. Also, in the very beginning, we all parishioners started from nothing but after getting some steem and SBD, we got motivated and our passion for steemit grew in a thousand fold. With the rewards coming every now and then, we invited friends over to join since we found a money source. If you stopped steeming because of low rewards, this depicts that you never loved the community and all that mattered to you was the money. Just know You ain't doing right.

In life there is no ideal successful organization that did not encounter its own twist and turns. Let us stick with steemit and no matter how tough things are, let us patiently pray for steemit, because that is what we ought to do as a church.
Dear parishioners, let us rekindle our dying candle with lots of patients and hope. Let us have faith in steemit and stick with the church because you never can tell how things could turn around before you say Jack.
I came into steemchurch because of the money it offered me, but along the line I began to discover what this household stood for.
To me steemchurch is more than the money it offers, steemchurch is PRICELESS.

if Steem goes global one day and or vanishes one day, what would you be remembered for? A crypto legend or a money-driven individual.
Recall, If sirknight had started steemit for the money, by now we wouldn't be having steemchurch still in existence.
