BMA FINANCIAL: Simplify

BT Staff

By Dr. Steve Crawley, Executive Director • BMA Financial

      As shared in a recent blog post on our site, one way to establish financial margin is to learn to be content. Another way to increase margin is to simplify our lifestyle. Someone has said that it is not the high cost of living that hurts people but the cost of high living! The typical American is addicted to an extravagant lifestyle that results in little to no financial margin. The pleasure, wine and oil of Solomon’s day are the entertainment, toys and eating out of today.

      As I write these thoughts, I’m glancing at a picture I keep on my desk showing a serene lake, a small cabin, a boat dock with a canoe and one word — Simplify!

      Simplifying our lives provides financial margin we can use to give and grow God’s resources. As a bonus, simplifying provides margin to grow our relationship with God and man — both of which make us wealthy in ways much more important than money!
