[...] Shop online if you must, from the comfort of home to avoid that friendly cashier. Go over your gift list and make sure you have not forgotten about any previous purchases. Remember that Christmas is not about the gifts, and where true riches are found. [...]

We are having probaly the smallest ($-wise) Christmas ever in 26 years of marriage. Some years we had more discretionary money, some years we (mistakenly) charged everything. This year we just don't have a lot of extra money for gifts, and we learned our lesson long ago about charging up our credit cards. What gets me down is not the part about not getting gifts, but not being able to give gifts the way I'd like to. Thankfully, frugal deals and coupon shopping has enabled me to buy some extra ingredients for "goodies" and I've decided to do extra baking and candy making, and also making some jar mixes, etc, and using that for outside the immediate family gifts. That, combined with a few small gifts for immediate family, will suffice. .-= Charlene @ A Virtuous Woman´s last blog ..Mission Possible Walgreens =-.

Well, this was a much-needed reinforcement of God’s Word for me! This year began as a financial nightmare for our family, but has ended up being a blessing. We lost our home to foreclosure, but we moved into my in-law’s home with a much lower monthly payment and we have been blessed because of it! Less stress, more focus on what’s really important! Thanks so much!

Thank you! I have been stressing over money quite a bit lately, and this is another reminder (they seem to be coming frequently!) that as a Christian, that is exactly what I should NOT be doing! God is in control. Yes, I need to be a good steward of what He gives me, but I need to let go of the worry and stress. Thanks so much for this post.

God truly works in mysterious ways. 30 seconds before I read your newsletter/blog, my husband and I were trying to figure out what to pay this week and who to put off. We were discussing our finances and feeling a little lost. I was sitting at the computer, just had entered your Walmart giveaway and then saw the James posting. The glorious book of James is one of my favorite books of the Bible. When I was a single mom with guilt of a divorce clouding my judgement, my preacher father told me to read the book of James. It set me free! and it still does to this day. Thank you for the post and guess what! in 2 min. my heart is light and uplifted and ready for what the world can throw at me.
