Money-Stress Affects Family Life. When Our ...
Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Mar 12, 2007 (message contributor)
Money-stress affects family life. When our youngest child was just four or five she overheard Elizabeth and me talking about several hundred dollars we didn¡¦t have to pay a past-due bill. In the middle of our ¡§adult¡¨ discussion I felt a pull on my shirt sleeve. There was Carrie, pudgy little hand held high with seven pennies in it; ¡§Here, Daddy, you can use my money.¡¨
Jesus once told about little children, and how it is their kind of trust that opens the doors of the Kingdom of God. That afternoon it became clearer to me what Jesus meant. Our little daughter, who had never been to a seminary class, or attended a Joyce Myer conference or a ¡§Financial Peace¡¨ seminar, understood instinctively that peace of mind was worth much more than the money she had stowed away.
