@Credit Card Chaser. Isn’t giving money away liberating? Of course you have to have money first, but setting a goal like you are talking about will certainly prevent wealth from ever being your goal. Thanks for your thoughts.

@Craig. I love the fact that God has a greater purpose for us and our finances. Wouldn’t life be dismal if we simply worked and lived for the purposes of this world?

You can not love both God & money. You have to make a choice. I'd choose God each and every time. .-= morrison´s last blog ..Acceptance and Moving Onward. =-.

@Joe. I’ve had this article tagged for a few days, but I’m finally getting over to leave my comment. I wanted to let you know that I love this post! I believe our call as Christians is much (much,much) deeper than simply building wealth. This does not mean wealth is bad, just that God has a greater purpose for us and our finances.

One thing that I have been convicted of lately is to change some of my financial goals from "I want to make X amount of money per year" to "I want to give away X amount of money per year to missions, church, etc.". .-= Credit Card Chaser´s last blog ..Chris Dodd Indirectly Wants to to Make it Harder to Get a Credit Card =-.

Thanks Peter,
You said it all with these words, “finding true fulfillment can only be found in loving God, and loving others.”
As always, I appreciate your thoughts.
