Personal Finance Tip of the Day:
Handling the Master's Money
By Austin Pryor for Sound Mind Investing-From CBN.com
Investing that glorifies God is motivated solely by a desire to see His kingdom grow. If you're a follower of Jesus Christ, then you know that:
Our life is not your own. "You also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ." (Romans 1:6) "If we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord." (Romans 14:8)
Your body is not your own. "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you've received from God? You are not your own; you were bought with a price." (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)
And, neither is your money your own. "To the LORD your God belongs the heavens, the earth and everything in it." (Deuteronomy 10:14) "Who has a claim against me that I must pay? Everything under heaven belongs to me." (Job 41:11)
