攻克信用卡疯狂症(二)

Apr 24, 2024

你们要治死身上属世的罪恶,如淫乱、污秽、邪情、恶欲和贪心。(歌罗西书3:5)

用信用卡购买你支付不起的东西会使你处于水深火热之中。保罗说:“你们要治死身上属世的罪恶,如淫乱、污秽、邪情、恶欲和贪心。”如果陷进债务里,你要这么做:一、停止购买你没有能力支付和不需要的东西。用信用卡购买这类东西,要付更高的利息,增加你的负担。只有在你足够自律不走极端的情况下才使用信用卡。你的意图可能是好的,但难以预料的情况会迫使你把债务不断拖延。如果你的消费完全失控,那么就把信用卡毁掉好了。二、更多奉献。有没想过为什么“施比受更有福”(参使徒行传20:35),或为什么“捐得甘心乐意的人才是上帝所喜爱的”(参哥林多后书9:7)?那是因为奉献帮助我们注目于自己欲望以外的东西。谨记,“有人乐善好施,反倒越来越富;有人一毛不拔,反而越来越穷。”(箴言11:24)奉献表明你已经胜过贪心!三、预期的反对。照着挪亚所做的去做——不理会,继续手中的工作!比如,一位女士在怀第二个孩子的时候,因为拒绝在宝宝商店注册购买更多的东西,她的朋友们就批评她,尽管她已经拥有所需要的一切东西。不要期待别人理解你的新做法。任何时候你尽力去做出成绩,总是会招致批评的。选择如何回应批评,是人生最重要的决定之一。如果你只做没人挑剔的事情,那你永远不会有多大成就!
