Just throw it in the bag...I want it all.
I like nice things. I mean I really really really really can't help myself sometimes. I buy buy buy anything I like from shoes, clothes, purses, without the impulse of thinking. It pulls me in every time like I'm hypnotized. What am I going to get next? Thats cute!!! Thats cute too....man I gotta have that.
Awakening......by Hebrews 13:5, "Don’t be obsessed with getting more material things. Be relaxed with what you have. Since God assured us, “I’ll never let you down, never walk off and leave you,”"
Yes!!! That is deep. I'm thinking to myself like hold up God...wait a minute; Are you trying to tell me I can't be fly so effortlessly? God is not necessarily saying I can't have nice this but I shouldn't be consumed by nice things either. After reading, I ignored the passage and went on with life. Then this week God spoke to me about financial management. My big bro was firm and helped me to understand how important it is to be a better steward with my money. I appreciate having him in my life because he made me realize that all those nice things will be there but having a savings account and being prepared for rough times is important. So starting next paycheck is my journey to tithing and saving.
To help me with this goal I will be using www.mint.com to help track what I spend and what I am saving.
