Situation: Broke

Ah yes... how wonderful it was to have this amazing sermon at Riverview on Saturday about one of the most difficult, over used, and touchy subjects: money. I would have to say that I thought I was making good money decisions and I thought I had an understanding of my financial situation. Well, the situation is that I'm pretty stinking in debt. Like $60,000 stinking. Yep, broke. So, I kinda had to have a heart to heart with my Jesus about the situation, and He pretty much told me I eat out too much, and expect things will turn out financially.

R: "Hummmm.... so you're saying that my $30 bill at Red Lobster is out of my budget?"

J: "Yes, Ryan"

R: "But you do realize I plan on making good money when I graduate don't you Jesus?"

J: "Stop living above your means NOW. Be a good steward of your money... actually my money. Plus, have I told you to work right after graduation anyways?"

R: "Oh, yeah good call... you did bless me with a great family, a great school, a great country, and a great education that has enabled me to make money and live well off."

J: "To whom much is given, much is required."

R: "Jesus, you're so smart."
