Building A Budget 2

I’m Miriam Neff and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan with Wise Women Managing Money.

M Any sound financial budget starts with a plan.  We advise using categories: fixed, and what varies.  The rest goes into savings.  Seeing those numbers is a wakeup call. 

V Do those numbers mirror your values?  Are they sustainable?  Are you building debt or savings?  What Kingdom values would you like to invest in?

Seeing the plan motivates us to make big changes, size down living space, keep that car running five more years.  Are you ready to own that picture?  This is us, this is me, I like it.

M Pause, thank God that He has enabled you to work, have an income, entrusted you with what He owns.  Thank Him first, then ask Him to help you make wise choices.
