Hello Financial Healers,
I sent an earlier version of this article out in August 2021. I hope you find it useful.
Fortune is dynamic. You experience high and low points throughout life.
One year you’re stuck in crippling debt. The next you’re facing countless opportunities, singing, “I can see clearly now, the rain is gone…”
Although low points in our finances hurt, the most difficult tests arrive at the top, when you have abundant spending options, but need to make the right decision.
It’s a problem many wealthy people face, and often fail.
To pass this test, you must build your capacity, the ability to handle financial growth.
One way to pass this challenge is to strengthen your capacity muscles.
Like physical exercise, you can hone your capacity with regular assignments, like the one I’m about to give you… 👇
… the $20 test
How does it work?
Take prisoner a $20 bill and keep it in your wallet (or purse) for 30 days.
The rules are simple:
Don’t spend it on groceries, gas, or rent.
Don’t give it away or save it.
Keep it in your wallet, untouched, for 30 days, no matter what.
On day 31, you can decide to spend the $20, save it, or give it away.
You’ll be surprised at how difficult this test is, and how many people fail.
Scripture says, “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.” — Luke 16: 10 NIV
If you can demonstrate your capacity with $20, God will trust you with more.
When unexpected wealth arrives…
Will you save it?
Invest?
Or kill debt?
Use these moments wisely, and prove to God that you’re a righteous steward.
