I’m Miriam Neff-with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY,-and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, and we’re here to talk about money
M We have many opportunities today to be generous. In these disruptive days, many are suffering from unexpected losses. Most of us can help, be generous in some way. We see needs, and we have means. What keeps us from acting?
V James 4: 17 If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.’ How do we determine what to give? Scripture says give another person your cloak. We’re not asked to give our whole wardrobe. Scripture says walk a mile with another person. God knows our needs also.
M We’re not asked to walk 15 miles with that discouraged person. God knows our obligations and all that is on our plate.
