My Finances

Proverbs 3:9, Matthew 6:24

Jesus says we cannot love both God and money. Each is a powerful master and motivator. But we can prove which comes first in our heart by tithing, by providing our resources for others’ needs, by getting out of and avoiding future debt, and by not fretting about finances daily. God is very clear that He is the source of all of our possessions. We cannot forget that.

Questions for further thought:
l.  Is all money God's?
2. How do you live that out?

Challenge: God wants us to live a good life. It does take a certain amount of money to do that. But the love of and the drive to make more and more money can distract you from God's plan for you. Give some thought to how you spend and how you give. "God loves a cheerful giver." (2 Corinthians 9:7)
