“Owe no one anything except to love one another.”

Thoughts for the Day
Debt has a way of quietly stealing freedom. It creates stress, anxiety, and often a sense of hopelessness. God’s Word consistently points His people toward freedom—not bondage. While some financial obligations may be unavoidable, Scripture makes it clear that living buried in debt is not God’s best for us.
Breaking free from debt requires more than good intentions; it requires disciplined choices made consistently over time. It may involve saying “no” to things we want so we can say “yes” to long-term freedom. This process is rarely quick, but it is always worthwhile. Each payment made, each unnecessary purchase avoided, and each wise decision strengthens both character and confidence.
God walks with us through the slow process of change. As we take responsibility and seek His wisdom, debt loses its power to define us. Freedom grows step by step.
Consider This . . .
Think honestly about how debt has affected your peace, relationships, and spiritual life. What emotions surface when you think about it—fear, frustration, avoidance, or determination? Ask God to give you courage to face your debt honestly and wisdom to take one practical step toward freedom this week, no matter how small it seems.
Father God, You see the weight that debt places on my life. I ask for Your wisdom, discipline, and strength as I work toward freedom. Help me make choices today that align with Your truth and lead me out of financial bondage. Give me patience for the process and hope as I move forward.
In Jesus’ name…
