These 37 money scriptures I can relate to.
But I also can see some money scriptures that I struggle with all my life and I don’t catch the real meaning of these God’s money scriptures. I’m so bent on budgeting that I miss out some of the most important of God’s money scriptures. Help me to understand the meaning more in detail because I don’t have the full understanding of all the 37 God’s money scriptures. Money to me is only a budgeting concept of how much I could spend and can not spend and budgeting to have keep money for my 4 day vacation I defently need money for I can’t go on my planned vacation without money.
Thank You

It’s very nice website and blogs are well written
Thanks for these verses and your blog’s content overall. I’ve read various financial blogs for over 7 years, but none included a religious viewpoint until I found your blog earlier this year. After reading some blog content as well as your post and ebook on “starting a blog” we jumped in and created a site.
Thank you for your encouragement and Christ-centered approach. It’s comforting to know that while the “love of money is a root of evil”, money itself doesn’t have to be.
Thanks for sharing these Bible verses! I need to write them down in my phone, it’s good to read them once in a while! Only wisdom in God’s word! If we would only listen to Him…
These are very helpful! Thank you!
Only the truth can set you free
May God bless you eternally
