MarginSample

One of the most common forms of stress experienced in today’s world is financial stress. In fact, financial stress is so common that it’s seen as normal. Living paycheck to paycheck or being buried in credit card debt is now seen as the norm and not the exception. As a result, the thought of having financial margin seems like a far off dream for so many, but that shouldn’t be the case. Financial margin is possible.
What does financial margin look like? It’s having money left over at the end of the month. It’s having money available to give without feeling stressed. Margin is the ability to be financially at rest. Financial margin is also biblical as Proverbs 21:20 NIV84 tells us. In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has.
Our culture’s definition of happiness has become “more than I currently have.” But 1 Timothy 6 tells us something different. It says that godliness with contentment is great gain. Take time to evaluate your life today. Are your finances a stress in your life? How have you seen financial stress limit your relationship with God and your ability to minister and give to others?
