Day 40: Begin Automatic Savings and Investment

My husband is an accountant. Needless to say with my old shopping patterns we have had many quarrels about money. I am so grateful that God spoke to me and opened my eyes to the damage my spending habits were doing to our family unit. Were you surprised to learn that Jesus talked more about money than heaven and hell combined? Obviously money is important and what a great example we have in the Proverbs 31 woman who had no fear for her household. Technology can now be used to do exactly what the Bible suggests: "He who gathers money little by little makes it grow." Donna offers some great suggestions in this chapter on how to improve the finances in your household. With these guidelines, and prayer for God's will in your money management, He will lead you where to start.
