Day 44 - Managing Money In Turbulent Times


Keep your lives free from the love and money, and be satisfied with what you have.

HEBREWS 13:5 NCV



"Winston Churchill once observed, "Success is going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm."p90

"As you live and learn about life, you should expect to make mistakes ...but you should not allow those missteps to rob you of the enthusiasm you need to fulfill God's plan for your life" p90

"We are imperfect people living in an imperfect world; mistakes are simply part of the price we pay for being here. But, even though mistakes are an inevitable part of life's journey, repeated mistakes should not be. When we commit the inevitable missteps of life, we must correct them, learn from them, and pray for the wisdom not to repeat them. When we do, our mistakes become lessons, and our lives become adventures in growth, not stagnation." p90

"Here's a recipe for handling money wisely: Take a heaping helping of common sense, add a sizeable portion of self-discipline and mix with prayer" - MARIE T. FREEMAN p91

"Discipline understands that the best way to get rich quick is to get rich slow." - DAVE RAMSEY p91

"If you work hard and maintain an attitude of gratitude, you'll find it easier to manage your finances every day" - JOHN MAXWELL p91



TODAY'S PRAYER

Lord, there are many things I desire, and many things I may never have. But I can have peace. I will trust You to care for my needs, Father, today, tomorrow, and forever. Amen
