Purify
Your Thoughts about Money
I
receive tons of letters from readers, most of them happy, but some of them
heart-rending.
Just
yesterday, one letter I read was from a man who was poor all his life. He didn’t even know how he’d get food for his
family the following week. Sure, he had
a job but it paid miserably and wasn’t even enough to keep his kids in school.
I
opened another letter the other day and read about a woman who had so much
debts, her monthly payables are double her monthly income. And according to her, she’s already living
very, very, very simply. She hasn’t
bought a new dress for ages, never goes to movies unless it’s a freebee, and
has sold most of her belongings already.
You
know that I recommend the simple life.
But not having enough money for your basic needs isn’t the simple
life. That’s poverty, and that
complicates life.
Read
carefully. Money isn’t everything and
people are totally mistaken if they think that money will solve all their problems
and make them happy. But we do need
money to live. It’s because of letters
like these that made me launch my financial crusade. I want to help good people make money.
And
the first step to making money is to purify your thinking towards money.
If
somewhere in your brain, you think that money is evil, that it is unspiritual
to earn money—then somehow, even subconsciously, you will find ways of AVOIDING
money. I’m serious…
But
the Bible doesn’t say that money is evil; the love of money is. Money is a neutral thing that can be used to
love or hate, to build or destroy, depending on how you use it. In other words, it can make you holy or it
can make you evil—much like anything else in life. It all depends on whether you follow or
violate the laws written in the fabric of the universe concerning its use.
Purify
your thinking towards money by embracing the truth that God wants you to have
some material things to live a humane life, enough for your needs, and more
than what you need, so that you can be generous. In fact, the Bible says, If a man will not
work, he shall not eat. (2 Thessalonians
3:10) and All hard work brings a
profit… (Proverbs 14:23)
Right
now, wherever you are, make a faith statement that your Creator wants to
provide for your needs. Make a faith
statement that God wants you to work and earn for a living and be responsible
towards your family.
Also,
it’s important to watch your attitude towards those who are earning well. Do you resent them? Do you feel that they are unspiritual? Do you feel that they used deception to earn
that kind of money? If you continue to
have these thoughts, you’re telling yourself that money indeed is bad and
unspiritual and can only be taken by deception.
Banish these thoughts!
Purify
Your Motives About Money
Motives
need to come from your highest values if we want to live freely.
Ask
yourself: Why do you want more money?
To
provide for the basic needs of your family?
To
fulfill your God-given responsibility as spouse and parent?
To
be more generous to those in need?
To
have more personal freedom to love?
When
you inwardly feel that your motives are in line with your highest values, then
you’ll approach your moneymaking endeavors as a whole person. You’ll move and walk and talk with integrity. With peace and happiness! The journey will be pleasurable.
But
if you inwardly feel that your motives are not in line with your highest
values, then you will work towards earning money as a divided person. If your innermost motive for earning more
money is merely for selfish opulence, your highest values will rebel against
that and you’ll experience a loss of integrity—a disintegration in your
character. You may reach your financial
goals, but you will never be at peace.
The
solution?
Follow
your conscience and change your motives according to your highest values.
Earn
money with nobility.
Make
money without robbing your soul.
Purify
your motives towards making money.
May
your dreams come true,
