The borrower is servant
Reads the lesson aloud on this device.
The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.Proverbs 22:7 · KJV
Store in good years, leave the edges, count the cost, don’t let debt own you, don’t lend to crush.
Debt gives someone else power over you. The Bible doesn’t ban all borrowing, but it warns that the borrower serves the lender. Keep debt small and named.
Check 1The proverb says the lender serves the borrower.
The borrower is servant to the lender.
Check 2A good first step with debt is:
You can’t manage what you won’t look at.
List every debt you have: who, how much, what rate, and when it ends.
Only check it if you did it. Nobody sees this but you.
Which debt is giving orders in my life?
Write your answer in the journal.
