Word for the day "Be careful of the financial Trappings"

Proverbs 1:17, 19 (NLT) If a bird sees a trap being set, it knows to stay away- Such is the fate of all who are greedy for money; it robs them of life.Do you ever feel overwhelmed when dealing with your finances? Does it feel like you are running around without results in your life, just trying to keep up? If you aren’t careful, your finances can become a trap that dictates your mood and takes control of your life. In this fast-paced world, it is easy to become addicted to accomplishments without having a real purpose. If you are chasing money for money’s sake, you will find that you never have enough.Whether you are in a comfortable financial position or find yourself with a shortfall, remember that money, although a necessary part of life, is not something to be held in such high esteem that it causes you to neglect the things that are eternal. It can be either a blessing or a curse, depending on the place you choose give it in your life.Point to ponder- Have your finances become an unhealthy part of your daily life, wielding more power over you than they should? What can you do to keep your finances in the right perspective? Be careful of the financial trappings.Our Leadership team is especially thankful for those of you who provided financial donations and support in the month of May 2017 by partnering with us in efforts to advance the kingdom of God in this 21st century season: Special thanks to Mr. William Wilson, Ms. Annette Straker, Mr. Kenneth Washington, Mrs. Barbara Mason, Ms. Quiana Volney, Mrs. Marguerite Williams and Ms. Gertrude Scott.
