让神喜悦，认真理财

神也管怎么花钱？这倒是挺有意思。不妨看一看你自己的财务状况。

我在几年前犯的最大的错误是贷款买了两辆车（家里和店里），一个房子和一整套新的电脑管理系统，又恰恰碰上2008年的经济大衰退，使我几乎陷入困境。好在神的保守和预备，经常掉下馅饼，使我渡过困境。

所以管理财务是件大事情。

 

箴言27:23 你要详细知道你羊群的景况，留心料理你的牛群；24 因为资财不能永有，冠冕岂能存到万代？

 

让神喜悦，认真理财

当你想跟从耶稣，你大概不会想到要保持良好的财务记录，但神要你随时跟踪你的花费，你欠的债，和你的收入。

圣经说，我们需要密切注意我们的钱财。 “知道你羊群的状况”。今天我们可以说，“了解你的股票的状况'。换言之，我们需要知道我们的钱是怎么花的。人们都说有钱能使鬼推磨，但实际上它只是静静地没了，而你觉得奇怪不知道它的去向。

不知道你钱的去向等于灾难。你陷入债务，因为你没有你的财务的良好记录。常言道，你最终花了你没有的钱，去买你不需要的东西给人留好印象，而你甚至不喜欢那些人。

而这会导致你生活中的各种问题。当你奇怪钱都去哪里了，这是一个警告信号。如果你不知道你的钱的去向，因为你不注意和宽松的信贷的麻烦，你已经陷入困境

你需要知道你的债务，财产和收入。如果你希望你的下一个十年是一个有使命的十年，那么你必须保持良好的财务记录，因为财富可以消失得很快。

想想：如果因为你为你的财务状况担心，就花很多时间把它记录下来，你可能已经少了很多后顾之忧。如果你希望上帝在钱财上祝福你，你必须保持良好的记录。

Please God by Keeping Financial Records

When you think of following Jesus, your probably don't think about keeping good financial records, but God wants you to keep track of what you spend, what you owe, and what you earn.

The Bible says we need to watch our financial interests closely. "Know the state of your flocks ". Today we might say, "Know the state of your stocks'. In other words, we need to know where our money is going. People say money talks, but actually it just walks away quietly. And you wonder where it went.

Not knowing where your money is going equals disaster. You get into debt because you're not keeping good records that show you what is happening with your finances. As the saying goes, you end up spending money you don't have on things you don't need to impress people you don't even like.

And this causes all kinds of problems in your life. When you wonder where it all went, that is a warning sign. You are already in trouble if you don't know where your money is going because ignorance and easy credit equals trouble.

You need to know what you owe, own, and earn. If you want your next ten years to be a decade of destiny, then you have to keep good records because riches can disappear fast.

Think about this: if you spent as much time writing down your finances as you do worrying about them, you'd probably have a lot less to worry about. You need to keep good records if you want God's blessing on your finances
