Are you feeling the squeeze of a shaky economy?
Inflation is up.
Gas prices are up.
Utilities and groceries are more expensive than ever.
It can put your family on edge if you’re living paycheck to paycheck and wondering how you’re going to make ends meet. How do we stay positive and trust the Lord to see us through tough times?
Perhaps the most important step is to bolster your faith by remembering that God is in control. The late Paul Harvey used to say, “In times like these it’s important to remember that there have always been times like these.” God promises to meet our needs if we follow His commands and wait patiently for Him to bless us.
Another important step is to make wise financial choices. To help with that, I’ve invited author and financial expert Michelle Singletary to join me on Focus on the Family with Jim Daly to discuss practical strategies for making the most of your resources, including:
• How to pay off debt.
• How to create a financial GPS – a budget – a guide to help you accomplish the things you want to with your money.
• How to build your savings.
• Handling finances as it pertains to adult children.
• How to build credit.
• Guidelines for financially helping family and friends.
• Advice about investments and retirement accounts.
• What to do when you’re facing dire financial situations, like a job loss, an income drop, rising inflation, etc.
