19 “Don’t store up for yourselves treasures[a] on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. (Matthew 6:19 CSB)

Whether we are talking about the materialism of getting more, more, more or we are talking about financial means there must be a reasonable process for accumulation.

This is more difficult today as everything cost so much more and even retirement seems like a pipe dream for many.

But if we start off with a simple concept that we pay God first with our tithe, then we pay ourselves something to save, then pay our bills we will find that the numbers work out. I have lived by this rule passed along by my father and it has served my family well.

We have lived with much and we have lived with little and God has seen us through everything. It is impossible to out give God and he has great things to do with your resources.
