A Fresh Look at Money

In today's world, many people are suffering from the pain of debt. Others are troubled with the upheavals of the financial markets. Let me remind you of the words of Jesus: "A man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions." If you understand that truth it will change your life forever.

Money alone will never bring you happiness. Do you want to a healthy marriage and/or family? It all begins with recognizing that your marriage and family are more important than your money. Money might be a great servant, but it is a terrible master.

Real satisfaction is found not in money, but in loving relationships with God, our spouse, children and friends. Loving relationships are our greatest assets. Most of us could live with less money, and may of necessity have to do so. But, if that helps us focus on relationships, then we still come out winners. Why not have a family 'soup' night - eat only soup and crackers and thank God that you are alive and together.

The greatest satisfaction in life is in investing your life in the lives of others.
