Many people struggle financially, in part because they are in debt and living paycheck to paycheck while buying cars and devices they can't afford. Well, in Proverbs 27 Solomon encourages us to adopt a wise financial strategy. "Know the condition of your flocks," he begins. "Give attention to managing what you have, for riches" he continued, "do not last forever." Don't waste what you have. Set some aside for a rainy day so when conditions deteriorate, you and your family will not be in need.

Ron: Did your mother ever tell you to save for a rainy day? So, did Solomon.

Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.

Ron: Many people are struggling financially, in part because they are thousands of dollars in debt and living paycheck to paycheck while buying cars and devices they can’t afford. After all, we’re entitled to the “Unlimited Data” plan, right?

Well, in Proverbs 27 Solomon encourages all of us to adopt a wise financial strategy. “Know the condition of your flocks,” he begins. “Give attention to managing what you have, for riches” he continued, “do not last forever.” Wealth is fleeting, he warns. Don’t waste what you have. Set some aside for a rainy day so when conditions deteriorate, you and your family will not be in need. For FamilyLife Blended, I’m Ron Deal.
