Finance Basics (5 of 5)

The fifth and final principle that Dave Ramsey presented last Sunday was "Give." Back in January, I made the following statement in one of my posts:

"...the mere fact that I drive a car (it could be any car--even a 1990 Ford Tempo with 179,000 miles), automatically places me in the top 8% of the world when it comes to wealth. Do you have running water? Are you reading this blog on your own computer? You, my friend, are filthy rich!"

So, why has God entrusted us Americans with all of this wealth? As you read through the Bible, you'll find over and over again that our resources are not meant to be horded or stockpiled. His blessings are meant to be a blessing to others.
