This warning echoes through Scripture - from Moses’ words to Israel on the edge of the Promised Land to Jesus’ parable of the Rich Fool.

Having financial goals is important; without goals, it's hard to know if we're on track when it comes to Biblical stewardship.

It's great to have a goal to pay off our credit cards, but if we don't put in place the disciplines needed to get there, the goal itself doesn't help us. 

Many things about our natural lives conflict with our spiritual lives. Living by the spirit in a natural and often enticing world isn't easy.

Remember when you learned to drive? You had to concentrate constantly on your steering, the foot pressure on the accelerator, and how much pressure to apply when breaking while constantly scanning your mirrors. It took intense focus, and having a drivers-ed teacher, or worse, a parent continually watching and judging your performance, it's a miracle you got through it! But you did get through it. After years of learning and gaining experience, you've developed a routine, a habit, that makes driving easy. The same can be true about developing good money habits.

Christianity doesn’t insulate you from worldly problems. Most Christians, if asked, would say they agree with that statement.
