Plan and Control Spending

Since we all must ultimately give an account to God of our financial affairs, it makes sense to track our finances now. Just as it is important for me, a financial planner, to keep track of your money and how it’s being managed, it’s important for you to be aware and manage the resources God entrusted to you. Financial independence constructing a budget (tracking it regularly) as well as a long range plan. Your spending reflects your priorities; seek godly counsel, develop plans for today and tomorrow, then you too can make informed decisions when spending. Budgeting and planning enable the steward to keep and increase giving commitments, prepare for future needs, live within financial means (out of debt), and make timely payment of bills. Every successful company has a monthly budget and a long range plan; why not you?
