Day 13 of 40 Days to Make Your Money Count

Purpose and Contentment "Money often costs too much." - Ralph Waldo Emerson People who are full of purpose and contentment arrived at their tipping point years before. Some had been taught valuable lessons when they were kids, and they made good choices early in their lives. Many others, though, lived for years deeply in debt, barely in the black, or fairly wealthy but without a sense of purpose. At some point, however, they realized that money, stuff, and hard work are all valuable up to a point, but life is about much more than things. It's about people and purpose. They came to a point of decision, and they made a wise choice. In an earlier episode, we looked at Jesus' parable about the soils, and we saw that the weeds of worry, deception, and greed have choked out the spiritual vitality of many people. Many of us have been choked like that, but at a point in time, we realized that we had a choice to go in a different direction and experience a life of joy, peace, and contentment. Today, people who are full of purpose and contentment still are tempted by worry, deception, and greed, but they see the weeds and take initiative to pull them before they choke their lives.
