Getting on the Same Page

I thought that Dana and I were doing a better job at tracking together financially. We had a great talk in the car on the way to Boston and wrote down some goals and hopes that we both agreed on. I felt good about where we were headed.

Last week I came to the shocking realization that we are NOT on the same page. We even had an argument. It is very unsettling to me. Somehow we need to carve out time to refocus and start moving in the same direction again.

Dave Ramsey talks about women having a "security gland." I know I have one. When something happens that upsets my feeling of security - watch out. Not being on the same page financially is one of those things.

God left me and everyone else that struggles with security some help in Matthew chapter 6: "Do not be anxious then, saying, 'What will we eat? or 'What will we drink?...for your Heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well."
