Zephaniah 3:17

“The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves.”

Papa, I know you are with me. I believe you are changing my financial problems, mistakes I’ve made with my finances and that you will always provide for me. I am learning to be smarter with my time, I may be spending more money than I ever have before, but I’m learning the difference between cheap and quality things that I never would have considered before.

Still I need to learn to be more deliberate with my money. It’s part of dating Mike that makes like and finances uncertain….but I learn things from him too. I’m less stingy with my money when I am with him. It is a good and bad thing. I’ve learned that if I want to please God, I need to give my first and best 10 percent back to God. So I need to figure out my finances and where I’m going to give. I did give to Orchard and I am sponsoring a child in the Philippines, but maybe I can give in other ways too when I am not sure which church to give to.

Lord help me figure this out and learn that abundance comes from you…not my perception of abundance, but that all my needs will be met by you. Not my own will or greatness, but your greatness. Your will. Thank you Papa!
