Notes:

Admitting my failures publicly – hoping you avoid them personally.

Wisdom: Learn the Hard way vs Learn the easy way

Confession: I’ve been a financial misfit who often “tried to out earn my stupidity.”

Unwise and undisciplined always leads to unwanted. 

Sometimes present us lets “someday” be the poor solution that distresses future us.

Jesus told his disciples: “There was a rick man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions. So he called him in and asked him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management…” Luke 16:1-2

“The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly…I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone you will be welcomed in to eternal dwellings.” Luke 16:8-9

“Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.” Luke 16:10

The Pharisees, who loved money, heard all this and were sneering at Jesus. Luke 16:14

Wealth is a resource we either waste or invest that reflects what we truly value.

Learn and apply God’s wisdom – Get financially educated and spiritually educated on finances.

Where there is no vision, the people perish. Proverbs 29:18

Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. Ecclesiastes 5:10

Manage your finances or your finances will manage you. No plan, is just a bad plan.

“Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?” Luke 14:28

The plans of the diligent lead to profit. Proverbs 21:5

Money is a tool, not the goal! – Wealth is a resources not an indicator

For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows. 1st Timothy 6:10

Apply God’s wisdom to our finances so wealth becomes a help and not a hinderance to a fulfilling life.
