Thanksgiving Gratitude

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

M We can’t stress enough that each person know where their money is going.  Write it down.  Plan to spend, save, or give it, and if you don’t have the money, don’t buy it.

V Today with Thanksgiving ahead is a good time to look back over that budget and thank God for each purchase of the year.  Here’s a starter list.

Thank him that you could pay your utility bills, be warm, cool, and comfortable.

Thank him that that you could buy food.

Thank him that that you could buy clothing

Thank him that that you could give to your local church and special charities.

M Most can thank God for all those blessings.  Now is a good time to remember.  God deserves our gratitude.  Don’t let the busyness of the season crowd out gratitude.
