RE: [Grateful Vibes #43] I'm Grateful For a Paycheck

in #gratefulvibes7 years ago

So nice to have the ability to live mostly debt-free and be able to pay three of your bills recently! What a blessing! It is so hard for most people to have bills, mortgage, car payment, vacations, credit cards, college loans, etc. to not keep earning money as the main thing. I think John 15:6 was one of the first Bible verses I memorized and it still sticks with me today. Abide in Him. Blessings my steemit friend! :)

Thank you so much! Focusing on what is important first is so important. I'm very grateful that I don't have many of the financial stresses that people often deal with, but surprisingly what remains seems like a great weight - until I remember that it wasn't money that redeemed me and my family from an empty life. Only our Savior did that. Cast our heavy burdens upon him and pickup the light yoke. @ironshield

So true! Thanks for the response. Yeah, we have way less financial stress than a lot of people, including people in our family. Panamanians usually live differently...most don't have huge loans for homes, cars, education, credit. A lot live within their means and they're okay with that. It's is sad to see that the "American dream" slowly is creeping into their culture though...
