This blog is about Chapter 3 of the book 100 Ways to Simplify Your Life by Joyce Meyer.
Having money and possessions is not a problem in itself, but how we use it is. We can't just hoard our money or let it control us. To live simply, we must use the blessings God has given us to bless others.
I don't have millions of dollars, or even thousands. But I can use what I have to be a blessing to others. I have school and bills to worry about, but I believe that God will help me take care of those. I shouldn't worry as much. God calls me to be generous and to help those I see that have need.
It's something I need to work on. Lately I've been running into people who ask for a dollar and I've felt God tugging at me and saying "You have plenty" and so I give them what they ask for. I feel weird about carrying no money, and a debit card instead, so I try to keep a few dollars on me at all times, for moments like that.
