Thinking Ahead: A Practical Step of Stewardship | Monday Push


Hebrews 12:11 Newsletter

Hello Reader,

A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences. - Proverbs 22:3 NLT

Prudent has become one of my favorite words. It reminds me that God invites us to think ahead. It’s not a strict requirement, but it is a wise invitation for anyone who wants to steward well.

If you’ve lived long enough, you don’t need help answering this question: what could go wrong financially this year? Most of us could name a few things pretty quickly. That’s not pessimism—that’s awareness.

The point of today’s note isn’t to list everything that could happen. It’s to remind you that unexpected moments are part of life. The real difference is how prepared we are when they arrive.

When we don’t save, an emergency often forces us to sacrifice something else.
When we don’t pay bills on time, we end up paying more than planned.
When we don’t communicate with our family, we may absorb costs we never intended to carry.

Prudence helps soften the impact. And the good news is this: you are capable of preparing for the year ahead. It doesn’t require perfection—just intentional effort, one step at a time.
