Fog is a strategy. If you never look, you never have to change. Stewardship is not a personality. It is four lines written down: give, save, owe, live — then the next decision matches the paper, not the mood.
Protocol
- 1Get every number on one page this week. Accounts, debt, what comes in, what leaves. Shame hates daylight.
- 2Write the four-line standard with whoever shares the house.
- 3Make the next money decision against that page. One decision. Then another.
The standard: Numbers on one page. A written standard. No mystery spending.
“So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?”
Luke 16:11
