Freedom!

So over the past 5 years, my husband & I have been on a journey of learning what it means to honor God with our finances. A huge catalyst for our change was when we read the book Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey: www.daveramsey.com
This book revolutionized how we pay our bills & structure our budget. He talks about paying off the smaller bills first & working your way up to the bigger ones. He also touches on the fact that not only is this an area of discipline, but God needs to be involved as well. Making prayer be the first thing you do before you jump into your next financial purchase. That was huge for us because we never had really let God into our financial lives. And now, today....because of the principles we learned from Ramsey we have become a family that is in control of our money, not controlled by it! Today is proof of that, we are paying off one of our biggest debts that we had incurred over the years!!! Praise GOD!!! He has changed us from the inside out & we have learned a lesson that has changed how we operate financially! This is a day to remember & celebrate!!! Thank you Lord!!
