Money

[Bob Wille (Family)]

“Those who love money will never have enough.
How meaningless to think that wealth brings true happiness!”
Ecclesiastes 5:10

Before borrowing money from a friend,
decide which you need more.
- Addison H. Hallock

I also believe that we need to have the confidence that God would act in our lives for our good and His glory.

Amen. Borrowing in many circumstances is taking a matter in our own hands especially when it is borrowing for daily necessities.

I learned early in life, to never loan money to a friend. If I have to give ...I will gladly do so...I will let them know it is a gift and I expect nothing. Sometimes I will ask them to pay it forward if the need ever arises in another's life... and they have the means to do so.

I love your attitude, sandman, glory to God.

Through the years my wife and I have lent to both friends and family members. In both cases getting paid back was a strain. We gave it up to the Lord and didn't pursue it any longer which took the weight off us.

Today we learned in Scripture to give within our means and don't expect to be repaid. The Lord has blessed us abundantly when we least expect it and living a life of complete contentment.

God bless you, sandman.

If we are forced to borrow for everyday needs, then we need to examine ALL of our spendings. Many people want to have things they don't really need and really can't afford.
