Unnecessary Spending

So, I just came out of fasting for three days.

God put it on my heart that fasting unnecessary spending was the best course for me.

Well, today was the first day I unnecessarily spent money.

I bought McDonald's for my six year old son at the mall. He wanted to hold his own bag- I totally support responsibility- he was going to eat it at home. When we got to the car he no longer had his cheeseburger happy meal. :(

I wanted to make it better for him by getting another one.

However: 1. My son needed that lesson in responsibility. 2. It was money I shouldn't have spent.

Jesus is so faithful to remind me to be diligent in my spending and diligent in raising my child.
