Proverbs 31:16 She considers a field and buys it;
From her profits she plants a vineyard.
Words that stand out: Considers, Her profits, Plants, Vineyard.
Why these words stand out for me is the following:
Consider: It is something that we might forget to do before we act in any way.
Her profits: We will see what she does with "her" profits.
Plants: No she does not get her profits and goes to the mall and buys the most expensive mascara, shoes, or bag. No, she plants, taking the time, getting on her knees, getting her hands dirty, and plants!
Vineyard: You might say: yes, well maybe it was necessary in those times; I mean who plants vineyards now a days?
May I suggest that planting could still be a very useful technique in saving money! Make the most of the yard you have, whether small or huge, plant lemons, radishes, watermelons, strawberries, potatoes, tomatoes, a banana tree.... ha! just making sure you are awake. Plus! like we discussed before, sometimes we don't feel like going to the store, and well, if you have a lemon handy in the backyard, that might just save you a trip to the store, some money, and add to your day a little more time.
Have fun!
