If you have fights about money in your marriage…you are normal, survey’s show it’s the most common argument among married couples.  Most of us are use to having to answer to only ourselves, and each of us has developed very different value systems growing up.  What we have to remember now is that marriage in itself demands commitment, but we must also commit to communicating and coming to an agreement about money.  We are now accountable to each other and God!  Be willing to compromise, and always be honest even if it hurts. It can’t be about blaming each other just as much as you can’t keep making excuses for the problems you have contributed to the money issues.

“There is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.” Proverbs 14:12

“Father God, You are the giver of everything that is good and I thank you that when we are in need, we can come to you in prayer. Help us to be good stewards over all you have given us and to seize every opportunity to communicate more effectively with each other.  Give us your power and strength to be willing to compromise when necessary, in Jesus Name Amen”

Challenge:  Instead of arguing over money….make a commitment to peacefully discuss future expenditures.
