Night-Time Thought on Economics: Tithing

Matthew Kelly said that tithing is life-changing. 
He and his wife increase the amount they give away little by little. That's a good approach to start with. 

Tithing really is an act of faith--you have to trust that by giving your hard-earned money away, you will receive some sort of blessing in return, and that your money will be used for the Glory of God.

Kelly said that Catholics need to be taught more about money--how to earn it, how to spend it, and how to give it away. That's certainly something I'm learning how to do as I contue in my journey of self-employment and freedom.

Money is meaningless unless we put it in God's hands.
