Money Management

June 11, 2009 · Leave a Comment

It’s time to get back to basics when it comes to money. With all the talk of the economy and the bailout during this season, let’s remember some foundational guidelines for managing money.

Let’s be content with what we have and get rid of greed. Selfish ambition leads to disorder and the love of money is the root of all evil.

We must pay taxes, something that’s been around since ancient times. We must render payment to whom payment is due. We will be most productive if we work six days and rest one. We should be diligent and hard-working in all our labors, not lazy. We must respect authority while not bowing down to evil.

Let’s set aside a percentage of our incomes to give to charitable causes, at times choosing to be generous above and beyond that. These tithes (the percentage) and offerings (gifts above that) are eternal investments with excellent rewards. God loves a cheerful giver.
