Peggy gave me a book of prayers and reflections recently, and so far this is my favorite quote. It is from John Wesley, founder of the Methodist Church:
When I have money, I get rid of it as quickly as possible, lest if find a way into my heart.
I'm just now learning the value of not spending more than you earn. Obviously, credit is necessary for lots of things in life, but sometimes I wonder if the ancient church was on to something when they outlawed usury.
