Hoarders

I like to keep my money.

I've been holding on to my allowance for a month and a half now.

I'm also enjoying watching the balance of our savings account go up and up.

We are living off very little of our money, and saving everything we can. The plan is to pay off the student loan as quickly as possible. But we've been putting the money in savings so that in case a house comes up, we will have a down payment ready. We figured we could put it toward the student loan if no houses come up.

I've felt really uncomfortable with this idea. Well, I love the idea of storing up cash. Hoarding money sounds fantastic! I just don't think it's what we should do right now. Where's the faith in that? It's like saying we believe God will take care of us, but we've got a savings account built up in case he doesn't.

I think we're going to just throw everything into the loan and see what happens. It feels like God's getting ready to do something big, and I can't wait to see what it is!

Now, where's my checkbook?
