ttle bit more? Yes, many of us do, and we suffer for it. We fall for the old illusion that what we need lies outside of ourselves.

Look at your financial picture and see what it says, if your church needed a measly $1000 to do good work, could you give it? If not it is time to pray to learn how to listen to your heart and not the advertising companies that want you to spend all your money. There is that small voice that says to you, “you do not need this w

This was a request from a reader. How does a Christian receive credit debt counseling? Well I think we pray, simple as that. We can look at scripture but did they have credit cards back then? I do not remember reading as Jesus arrived to the village he used his Credit card to secure his room and meal. However I do think the principals for dealing with money have always existed in scripture. “Neither shall you desire your neighbor's house, or field, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor." This isn't just about being a good neighbor it's about not being envious of other's possessions and trying to live above your means. This was the original advice against keeping up with the Joneses.

Here is the scenario the average American has $8,500.00 of credit card debt, $10,000 in other debts and whatever your mortgage on the house is. Half of us only make our minimum payments and bankruptcies are on the rise every year and this includes Christians. What does a Christian pray for? Guidance.

I envision Christ’s message as one of discipline and the ability to follow what is right about oneself and God. In that setting being in debt, poor and suffering does not make sense. We need to pray for guidance on what to do with our spending habits. We make more money now, or have the potential to, than at anytime in history. There are more millionaires now than ever before. This is a good thing because with great wealth comes the opportunity to help more people.

It is not the inflow of money that is the challenge it is the outflow, we are convinced to spend too much. I compare this to the times so many people tried to convince Christ that his path was the wrong one. Did he listen? Luckily for us he did not. Do you and I listen to the people that would have us spend every dime we have and a little bit more? Yes, many of us do, and we suffer for it. We fall for the old illusion that what we need lies outside of ourselves.
