Glace, back when I was still in Phils, I had the honor to work with the Germans and another bank for a tripartite project in South Cebu to set up a quasi-banking system that is "owned by the people".  We targeted cooperatives.  Anyway, one of my many tasks is to ask myself to be invited to meetings in the local level. Usa sa mga objectives, "to inculcate the value of savings".  Savings is not just the remainder of your income but should be a part of your budget, et. etc. Daghan namati sa mga jam=jam ni marigrace but deep inside mura'g naulaw ko kay i wasn't really doing that.

Do you know how it feels na depositohan ang bank account ug 20 pesos kay ang balance 85 pesos na lang unya ang minimum na ma withdraw sa ATM kay 100 pesos?  Mao na!

Diha tuod ko'y na save ning palit kog stocks daw beh ang banko na akong gipalitan ug stocks kay na pordoy man!  ;D

There is a maxim that my dad shared with us in our youth;

"A penny saved everyday makes a man, healthy, wealthy, and wise."

Since we were young, our dad always told us to save, and keep piggy banks.
And it works. Start as piggy banks, then soon transfer over to savings funds, investments etc.

Children should be taught how to save money early. Teach them the value of a penny, quarter, and then dollar.

The Bible recommends saving in this circumstance in Proverbs 21:20 when it states, "In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has."
Yet in order to be a good steward, we must not hoard the resources God entrusts to us.  As discussed above, we should save for known future expenditures as well as set aside some money "for a rainy day".  But when we start to save for the sake of saving and begin to trust in our riches to keep us safe, this is hoarding, and it is unbiblical.

There is a fine line between being a good steward who saves in accordance with true needs and a hoarder who trusts in his savings to deliver him from all kinds of hardship.  The difference is attitude.  If you are truly saving for a need, then you are most likely being good steward.  Sometimes the Holy Spirit will guide you to give away money you have been saving to provide for an even greater need for someone else.  In this case, you are obligated (and should be overjoyed that the Lord is using you) to follow God's direction as His steward.  He will provide for you in another manner as long as you are following Him.

On the other hand, if your trust has been placed in wealth, your perspective must be altered.  Instead of riches, trust God for your provision because "wealth is worthless in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death" (Proverbs 11:4). Do not allow money to be your security, "but seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well" (Matthew 6:33).  In short, trust the Lord, not in your wealth (savings).
"put not your trust in money, but put your money in trust".

Amen, Ellen!

As my mother would say, 'Don't spend everything what you have, save 50%. You never know when you'll have a rainy day.'

The rationality of my 9 year old brother. It made tear in joy.


For his birthday, I took him to Toys' R'Us and told him he could buy legos, games, and toys but with a limit of $100. I took him to the Legos isle expecting him to get the big box of Knights and Castle, which was priced at $80. I was wrong.

Andre took a small box of Knights that cost $7.99. I asked him if he was sure. He said, 'Yes Kuya."

Then he pulled me down to whisper in my ears, "Kuya, is it okay if you just buy me this little box and give me the $92 in cash?"

To my amazement, I agreed. As we walked out of the store, I noticed that he had a big smile on his face, as we walked hand to hand to my car. I bought him a wallet, and put in his wallet the $92.

That afternoon, I was outside mowing the lawn, and trimming the side. Then to my surprise, my little brother was outside helping me. He helped me unload the  grass from the lawn mower bin.

I found out later that my father paid my brother $20 for helping me mow the lawn. My baby brother was collecting and saving. This was in July.

By September, he had in his wallet a little around $300 worth of cash. And I asked him, 'Andre what are you going to do with that money? Buy a PS3? games? toys?'

He smiled to me and said, "No kuya. I'm going to put it in my bank. '

Hahahaha!

I smiled then. And I still smile now.

I strongly believe that how we use and manage our money is a faith issue. God expects us to be good stewards.Dili lang sad palabian ang katihik kay sala napud na.Saving money is important labi na ug naa kay mga anak.
Yes saving is extremely hard.Spending is so easy and give you that instant gratification.Learn to deny yourself of something you don't really need.Saving isn't something you just turn on or off it's a mind set.The power of discipline the rewards of time.

The captains of American industry such as Vanderbilt, Carnegie and Rockefeller were all immigrants, or children of immigrant parents in the 19th century and early 20th centuries.

These captains of American industry were the builders of the American railwaylines, coal industry, shipping, phone lines, etc. Propelling the United States economy into unprecedented heights.

But these men were so very thrifty.

Mr. Vanderbilt, who was a billionaire in the 1800s! (imagine a billionaire in such a time); he would even pay with coins (pennies, nickel, dimes, and quarters even).

Carnegie, who was a great philantropist, built universities, schools, parks, reservations etc, and planned ahead.

Carnegie-Mellon University, which is in the city of Pittsburgh, is a product of Carnegie's vision. Carnegie placed some millions of dollars for the college's endowment. He ordered it to be saved and placed on time savings. Today, the endownment is worth billions.


Being rich isn't about being greedy, its about being well thought, strategic, planning, and thinking about the future. Maybe not your own, but for your children's or grandchildren. etc.

Absolutely,

Remember Jesus told us about the Parable of the Mustard Seed, how something so small can blossom, through faith and hard work, to something larger and fruitful.

Recite lang ko from Mathew 13: 31-32,

"The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and perch in its branches"

Internal interpretation lang from that parable of the mustard seed.

Something so small, like a mustard seed can become the largest of all garden plants. And it isn't just a regular tree, it becomes one that has branches. Note that Christ tells us that birds even perch on the branches of the mustard tree (which once was a mustard seed). Its important to remember that in old Hebrew understanding, the animals of the air have a primary or importance over animals on the ground. Why? Because they can fly, closest to Heaven. Animals that fly have a heirarchical importance. The fact that the birds will 'perch' on the branches of the mustard tree symbolizes the transfiguration of the mustard seed.

Something that was so small, what many would consider 'impudent' 'worthless', becomes a source of rest and home for even the animals that fly.

Christ tells us, that through work, and through faith, even the smallest can become GREAT. Can become higher and achieve their fullest potential.

Remember what he said in his sermon on the mount.
"The meek shall inherit the EARTH."

He reiterates just that in the parable of the Mustard Seed.

Anyone, can become great. Through work, through faith, through savings, and godly mind. Remember David. He was nothing but a mere sheppard boy. A sheppard boy that became the greatest King of All Israel. The anointed king David, of whose line would bear the line of Mary, who would bear her son, and our saviour. Christ Jesus.

Mustard Seed, indeed.

great reflection bran.

another insight about the mustard seed is that it can be very small but as spice, it can be very strong.

as a child, i used to have this little pendant - a little crystal ball with a mustard seed inside. and it often reminded me of my grandfather's favorite bible verse that says, "if ye have faith as large as the mustard seed, ye can move mountains.."   

i lost that pendant a long time ago  but the lesson is still here in my head...

I strongly believe that how we use and manage our money is a faith issue. God expects us to be good stewards.Dili lang sad palabian ang katihik kay sala napud na.Saving money is important labi na ug naa kay mga anak.
Yes saving is extremely hard.Spending is so easy and give you that instant gratification.Learn to deny yourself of something you don't really need.Saving isn't something you just turn on or off it's a mind set.The power of discipline the rewards of time.

indeed, raq. as stewards of God's gifts, we are expected to take care of it, and use for the well-being of all.
