Is your money spread thin from trying to reach all of your goals simultaneously? I’ve been there! A little emergency fund here, a little vacation there and never actually reaching your goals. That’s the thing about money and time. There is a set amount and that’s not going to change. The hard part is deciding what is actually important. Have you ever sat down and analyzed what is going on in your budget? More than likely there is something in there that is less important and it’s taking up space for what is truly important. I’ve heard it said many times for time management, but it works well for money management as well. If it’s not in your budget, it’s not truly important to you. That’s why today I am going to guide you through prioritizing your goals.
So go grab that stroller and enjoy some time for you and let’s get to it.

Today, we are going to be jumping into the conversation of saving money. Now we all know that we should be saving money, but the big question is what should we be saving for?
I have found there to be 5 constants that each budget should have. How you handle each category and create boundaries and amounts will differ, but by knowing what these categories are, it will take the guesswork out of what you should be saving for?
As we head into fall go grab that stroller so that you can enjoy the last bits of the season and let’s get to it.

It is so easy to overlook the way God provides for us because it’s not usually in the way we want or expect. Plus, in the world's eyes it looks cheap. It looks poor. It looks like we are incapable of taking care of ourselves. It looks vulnerable and reliant upon others and we live in a world that thrives on independence.
Today I wanted to share with you the way God has moved in my life. How He has provided for myself and my family all throughout my life. My hope in sharing these stories with you is that it helps you to open your eyes to how God is working and providing in your life, so that you can start looking for it and get excited the next time it happens.
So go grab yourself a yummy drink and maybe some tissues because I believe God is going to do some work in us today. Let’s get to it.
