In September we are focusing on Financial Stewardship...becoming great stewards who manage, multiply, and greatly increase all that God has entrusted to us.

Recently I was reminded of something God has taught me to do in the area of finances... which is writing out prayers. The process of writing out what we are believing God for helps us to clarify our thinking, and the written document creates a marker in time of our prayer. 

Here are a couple of ways to apply this into financial stewardship...

1. At the start of the month review your forecasted income and expenses for the upcoming month and write out what you want. 
2. If there is something specific you are believing for, write out very precise details of what you want.
3. In investing something I feel God is prompting me to do is write out the criteria of what I am looking for in investments.  

After writing our prayers like this I like to print them, sign them, get in agreement with someone who will also sign, and take communion over the prayer. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

The evening of September 25th is the Feast of Trumpets and starts the 10 Days of Awe. During this time every year I do a 10 day Daniel Fast. During the Daniel Fast I do typically workout each day. Depending on the day I do what I can do. The more we rely on God's grace to do the Daniel Fast the more we can typically do in our workouts. But the more we do it out of willpower the harder the workouts usually are.
