Saving for a Rainy Day
How many of you aspire to retire with no savings and nothing to live off of except Social Insecurity if it’s even around by then? It is ironic that in one of the most affluent countries in the world we’ve got people that retire broke all the time living off of a small S.S. check. Most companies no longer have the set-up where you work there for so long and then collect a pension after you retire. Statistics say that very few American households have even $1,000 saved in a bank account. When an emergency happens we remember the motto, “Life takes VISA”. We spend as if there is no tomorrow and while that may sound fun and be fun it’s stupid! I’ve got an expert authority on this that agrees: Proverbs 21:20- “The wise have wealth and luxury, but fools spend whatever they get.”

Choose my instruction instead of silver, knowledge rather than choice gold, for wisdom is more precious than rubies, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Proverbs 8:10-11

Wisdom on Wealth
“Whatever keeps me from my Bible is my enemy, however harmless it may appear to be. Whatever engages my attention when I should be meditating on God and things eternal does injury to my soul. Let the cares of life crowd out the Scriptures from my mind and I have suffered loss where I can least afford it. Let me accept anything else instead of the Scriptures and I have been cheated and robbed to my eternal confusion.” A. W. Tozer
