Food For Thought: When you look at the statistics it can be depressing. For some people in this world, poverty is a stark reality. For others, it’s just a state of mind. How disturbed should we be if our income falls below the national average, or even below our neighbor’s? Rather than striving to obtain a better standard of living by simply making more money, perhaps we need to adjust our attitude toward spending. If we are sincerely willing to try to stay within the amounts God has allotted us, I believe he will honor our efficiency. Now and then it is wise to go over the budget systematically, bearing in mind Solomon’s wise advice.
