Money management for wives

According to Elizabeth George, author of A Wife After God's Own Heart,"we should make a commitment to God to do a better job with His resources and money,and do our best to manage our parts as wives of the family finances."
She further wrote that we should:
  • Pray - managing God's money is not only a spiritual issue requiring spiritual disciplines and character qualities, but it is a matter of obedience.
  • Give - because God asks us to.
  • Save - because it will better your family.
  • Budget - because it maps out the path for your lifestyle.
  • Do without - because a host of spiritual disciplines are birthed and enhanced as you do so.
  • Beware - of greed, lust, bitterness and envy.
  • Grow - in contentment.
