New Addition to Our Family

After reading the book, Your Money Counts published for 

Crown Financial Ministries, I decided that I was going to 

start thinking and treating money the way God wants me to 

think of and treat money. This lead me to discuss with my 

honey the decision to make our next car be purchased with 

CASH ONLY. This would mean downsizing, no fancy 

extras, freedom from monthly payments, and saving 

thousands on the life of a loan.

Thanks to God's leading, trusting Him at His word, 

much prayer and the prayer of other prayer worriers, 

waiting, seeking (countless hours on the auto internet 

sites), and did I mention God's leading and prayer, 

He added this to our family.

It is not a perfect car, but it's in pretty good shape 

for it's age.  My honey has already been shopping 

around for parts to fix some cosmetic issues.  Most 

importantly, we learned that God does provide, He is 

true to His word, and we were blessed with a better 

car than I imagined we would end up with.

I hope you are inspired to read the book (Did you 

check out that sale price?  Great for the budget!) and 

begin the rewarding, trying, blessed journey to 

making decisions based upon what the Bible says 

about spending, saving, giving and being debt free.  

It seems like this economic crisis is the perfect 

catalyst for sound council as this.
