So most recently we have enjoyed listening to the Dave Ramsey show and watching the Suze Orman show. No, we are not becoming obsessed about our money. We are becoming increasingly dedicated to living within our means so that in the future we can generously give.
Currently we are a one income family, so that Mark can focus on his studies, and be adequately prepared to enter the PA program that is intended for him. This means that we get to be frugal for a time, a time that I am learning to not just tolerate, but embrace. Who would have thought that I would willingly give up ice cream to save us $5 a week in groceries!
Lord, please give me a heart of patience and willingness to be tolerant of the circumstances that you have divinely appointed for us, and yet intolerant to the sin that can come from comparing our situation to that of others.
Give up ice cream???? You're such a loving wife!
