Today we had a nice quiet Sunday.
We really love the church we are at. Every Sunday we leave feeling so challenged. Today's sermon was based off of Acts Chapter 2. There were many points in the sermon that hit home for both Darrick and I but the biggest was tithing. If you aren't familiar that is the part of your income that you set aside for God. We wanted to make a change and so we sat down this afternoon and evaluated our budget and reworked it tonight after the boys were in bed. Our goal is to be better stewards of the money God has given us. We are also learning the hard lesson of living within our means, which we did not do for many years, and to become debt free by the time we leave Hawaii.
We also are both making a commitment to read and study the Word everyday. To be honest, we have been slacking. We asked our Bible Study last Thursday for any tips anyone had for us and we got some really good ideas. If you have a tip or something that you do we would love to hear it.
We hope everyone has a good week!

Personally, I need accountability more than anything else. And not just my wife, either... someone outside the household.
