Also, I want to sell a piece of real estate and get our house paid off completely. I will feel much better when I'm debt free. Thank the Lord I don't owe on any vehicles.
I am stockpiling some food and water upstairs - things like rice, beans, etc. I don't want to be crazy, but I do want to be prepared.
Churchwise, our offerings and tithing have not been affected in the least by the recession. Eddie preaches that we are refusing to participate in it  , so our people are excited about the future. We are looking at a huge building project, but are trying to be wise. So far, we've only done what we can afford to do with cash that we have.
I know, most of all, that God is going to take care of us. But I want to also be WISE. |
Good post. I am reading Dave Ramsey's book "Financial Peace."
Tina and I have been trying very hard to revamp our budget, cutting every nonessential expense possible. We've been stocking nonperishables for quite a while now.
Our goal is to get rid of every debt imaginable. Thankfully, we don't have a lot but, with God's help we won't have any.
