This week in business class we learned about measuring
the cost. I was thinking this week would be more the price tag, but instead it
was on balancing business life with family life. We also learned about our
attitude toward money. We need money to survive and support the family. To put
a roof over our heads, food on the table, and other things that keep us safe
and healthy are important to buy with money. We need to make money that is
sufficient for our needs. If we spend all our time on just making money, we are
missing the boat. We need to teach our children about the importance of money
and how to budget. Planning for the future is very important for us and our
children. Money is not evil if thought about in the right way.
How we view money can affect the way we live. If we
live selfishly and make money, only to make more money for yourself, we will
not proper in the sight of the Lord. We need to help and serve other around us.
We should rank ourselves better than others because of money, we should look to
others as equal and find ways to serve. Being the holiday season, this is an
excellent time to find ways to help and uplift others. By doing this, we are
becoming more like our Savior.
Some
rules recommended for prospering are:
- Seeking the Lord and have hope in Him.
- Keep the commandments in tithing and fast offerings.
- Think about money and plan how to become self-reliant.
- Take advantage of chances of learning. Get an Education.
- Learn the laws upon which the blessings of wealth are predicated.
- Do not send away the naked, hungry, thirsty, or sick. Help them in any way.
This was a great week of learning.
