Perspective

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

M When our financial reality is shaking and we realize things must change, it’s good to step back and get a bit of perspective.

V Our family traveled to the Mathare Valley in Kenya to help widows.  Remember Nadine, the Christ follower supporting her children, nieces, and nephews in a tiny twelve square feet space, with a small corner for cooking, one pot and sleeping mats.  Her real treasure matched ours.  Nadine, and I are both wealthy because we have the treasure of Christ. 

M A precious lesson when finances change is that contentment is never gained through stuff we own.  It’s perspective.
