The bible says...
"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money." Matthew 6:24
A story was shared with me this weekend about how people who work on railroad tracks get so used to the sound of trains that it's not uncommon for them to get hit while working because they don't hear the train coming. Can you imagine NOT hearing a train approaching WHILE STANDING ON THE TRACK!
Our country has become so backwards. "No interest, No payment, until 2010". What ever happened to layaway? Too slow? Have now, pay later...don't wait. BE HAPPY NOW. Big houses, fancy cars, nice furniture, new clothes... Our wastefulness too. How about a bite size brownie pan that you can buy now at Target that allows you to make brownies in little squares (like cutting them has become too hard). Rental storage units will certainly be in demand even in this economy because of all the stuff we own and don't use or need, especially if we lose the house we were once able to store it in.
No problem, it doesn't cost much or we'll make the money and pay for it...eventually. And we will...
All this, even after God tried to remind us that it all belongs to him and we should trust in Him to provide. EVERY PIECE OF MONEY HAS "IN GOD WE TRUST" WRITTEN ON IT. EVERY PIECE! Do you you think we got a little used to getting things ourselves and on OUR time rather than "trusting in God"? And now the train is approaching.
Do you here the horn?
I don't know about any of you, but I want to be free. Our Crown Financial memory scripture for this week...
"The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender. " Proverbs 22:7

1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt, pepper, cayenne pepper to taste
These I don't have exact measurements for (guesses):
Craisens (1/2 to ¾ cup chopped)
Sunflower seeds (1/2 cup)
Walnuts (1/2 to ¾ cup chopped)
Parsley (1/4 cup chopped)
I guess you can also add chopped dates or apricots too.
Bring three cups water to a boil then add bulgar wheat and take off heat and let the water absorb fully. Mix everything together.

Romans 9:16
It does not, therefore, depend on man's desire or effort, but on God's mercy.
