Pockets.......Pockets

Get your hands out of my pockets. The palmer worm, the canker worm swirling all around me...How can I live with your hand always out. Devouring all of my money. How can I tithe with all these bills drowning me? I'm so deep in debt.I've cried out loud and no one has heard me yet. A friend wounded me to my face;telling me about a robbery that took place. In the end I was called a thief and a robber.I sob and cried some more.Remembering the tithe don't belong to me and God will always get His money!
