JOURNEY’S END

I hope that this book has helped to clarify some issues that you might
have as a Christian on the topic of wealth, success and financial
management. However, it is intended only as a start, more a point in the
right direction than a full travel guide!

As mentioned before, there are many great books and resources
available that go into the nitty-gritty of financial management,
budgeting, career choice, investment strategy, time management, and
so on. However, whatever we learn and put into practice should always
be anchored in biblical principles, which I hope this book has provided.
For in the words of the teacher in the final chapter of Ecclesiastes: “The
words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly
embedded nails—given by one Shepherd. Be warned my son of
anything in addition to them. Of many books, there is no end, and much
studying wearies the body.”

So friend, as we travel the road together, let’s keep it simple. Let’s stick
close to the Word of God, test everything else against the Scriptures and
let the wisdom of the Word be our ultimate guide. It is my hope and my
prayer that we will meet face to face in Heaven at our journey’s end.

“Therefore get wisdom; though it costs you all you have,
Get understanding”
(Proverbs 4:7)

“He who cherishes understanding prospers.”
(Proverbs 19:8)
