I was thinking if I got up on Monday morning and spent as much time in God's word and prayer as I do making all my lists and cutting coupons for my weeks bargain shopping how much growth would my spiritual life have? Definetly feel like I have the responsibility to wisely use our finances and have some fun doing it but also need to store up "treasures" in heaven as well. When Christ comes back it won't matter how much toothpaste I have stored up or if my freezer is full but only the things done for eternity will matter. Maybe should post a verse/quote or something on top of my computer to remind myself of this lesson.

It is a very interesting challenge. I wondered if I was the only one struggling with this, and I am so glad to see that I am not.

Th...Wow, you took the words right out of my mouth! This has been on my mind a lot lately. I love finding the best deals and stretching our dollar but sometimes it can be TIME consuming! There's days when I've found the best deals online and have walked away from stores with lots of freebies, but end up having an unkept house and two young children that haven't had their moms "full" attention. I'm realizing that when I'm older and the kids are grown I don't want to look back and remember all of the great deals and freebies that I was able to get, but rather all of the precious quality time that I was able to spend with my children while being a stay at home mom. There has to be a balance! I am now trying to only go "deal hunting" when the kids are napping or after they are down for bedtime. Thanks for the reminder that all of us "deal seekers" need!! God Bless!Jaclynnnoreply@blogger.com
