Thrift

Some feel that concern over economics is not Christian "For the love of money is the root of all evil ..." 1 Timothy 6:10.  We are told not to worry and fret over our daily bread.


But a healthy attitude toward money is not un-Christian.  Money is merely a tool.  Hard work, saving, and proper stewardship of our money have always been encouraged in the Christian community.  We are told that "he that gathereth by labour shall increase." Proverbs 13:11


What is important is to remember that "The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts." Haggai 2:8.  Our finances, just as the rest of our life, should be at the disposal of the Lord.
