Saving Regularly

Cause & Effect Paragraph

Saving your money on a regular basis can have far reaching consequences in the future. First of all, it builds a constructive habit and provides a definite goal for your funds. Second, it creates both stronger character and greater personal discipline as you ration out the money you receive. Third, it puts a check on impulse spending as you try to make sure that the finances go toward their designated purposes. Fourth, habitually saving money is good for children because it prepares them for managing their income in the same way they will need to when they have bills later in life. Lastly, it creates an emergency fund from which you can draw if hard times come and you run out of cash. As stewards of the possessions that God has given us, I think it is in our best interests if we teach ourselves to save money on a regular basis.
