Prepare

Preparation is one of the most underestimated task when thinking about the future.

A lot of families don't function in the area of preparation, whether it be preparing financially for retirement, future children's college fund, creating a rainy day fund for life's little hiccups or even money to be used for buying a home.

Understandably, most families would like to be able to prepare financially for life events, but the cost of living and the career options available make things a bit difficult. This is why having faith and building it up daily is important. The stronger your faith the bigger the mountains you can move. Write out what you need and want for your life as you see it right now,be as specific as possible. Look up a couple of scriptures that can support your desires/needs and write them down with that list and declare it to the Lord. Tell Him these are things that I desire and need for my future. Believe it and now it's time to do your part in the process.

If it is financial preparation, look at your finances and see if there are any reoccuring expenses that can be eliminated, at least for the time being, such as coffee trips, shopping sprees, cable, etc... Next see how you can consolidate your credit card debt whether it be by taking out a low interest loan or applying for a credit card with a good 0% APR promotion that you can transfer current debt to so you can pay off debt without a monthly APR piling up. Next, start putting up any cash or change you have at the end of every week, you'll be shocked at how much you're able to save at the end of a few months.

Preparation is one of the best tasks to  ever be given considering a lot life's events aren't preventable, so when ever you have the ability to prepare for something do it now, don't wait.
