It’s what I call the Higher Work of Wealth–understanding that financial success is a spiritual journey; that financial abundance is a divine right and a divine duty; and that financial accountability is a sacred responsibility.
Looking at money from this perspective makes the often-overwhelming task of making more money and managing it wisely seem easier and definitely more meaningful.
I’ve come to believe, from my own experience, that money (respecting and appreciating it) is a vital tool for doing what we were put on this earth to do.
I’ve always believed that we are here to do God’s work. But we cannot possibly follow our God-given destiny, if we’re drowning in debt or struggling to make ends meet.
However, disciplined spending, ample earnings, habitual savings, and prudent investing are sacred tools for not only living our best life but improving the lives of others.
And the moment you inject faith into finances, the instant you invite the Divine into your relationship with the ‘almighty dollar,’ your experience with money grows deeper, richer and more meaningful.
I agree with Depok Chopra who declared: “We need a more spiritual approach to success and to affluence.”
Money is power. Everyone knows that. But I take it one step further.
Money, I believe, is God made visible.
Money allows us to do what She put us on this planet to do, living our purpose, playing full out.
And when you treat your money with the reverence and respect it deserves, it will shower endless blessings upon you and the world.
After all, it isn’t an accident that “In God We Trust” is emblazoned on our currency.
