“Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops.” Proverbs 3:9
If you wait until there is “extra” to give, you will probably never start.
Generosity begins with intentional planning. Dave Ramsey teaches, “A budget is telling your money where to go instead of wondering where it went.” That includes your giving.
Set aside a percentage of your income — even a small one — to reflect your faith values. Treat it as non-negotiable, just like saving or paying bills. This practice ensures that your financial plan reflects your spiritual priorities, not just your lifestyle preferences.
When your giving is planned, it is no longer a reaction — it is a reflection. You’re making sure your money serves what matters most.
Reflection Question:
If your giving became a regular, planned part of your financial life, how might that change the way you think about money?
