\"Encouragement<\/p>\n

She has a mortgage payment and lives in a small home with her family of four. But having had the chance to spend a bit of time with her, she appears very wealthy to me.<\/p>\n

This woman is 30 years old.\u00a0 A stay-at-home Mom with two beautiful and healthy children ages 1 and 3, she has a good relationship with her husband and all of his family members as well as her own family members.<\/p>\n

A few days ago, I walked early in the morning with her and her Mom and observed their relationship. They respect and love each other and enjoy spending time together.\u00a0 In fact, they can talk about anything comfortably.<\/p>\n

Later on the same day, I went to a Bible Study at the young woman\u2019s mom\u2019s home. Before Bible study began, she sat at the kitchen table helping her daughter figure out how to put together a Ravensburger puzzle.\u00a0 Both she and her daughter were enjoying themselves.\u00a0 Then, after Bible study, both of her preschoolers were fussing in the kitchen because they wanted to drink from Grandma\u2019s water bottle at the same time.\u00a0 She patiently gave her three year-old daughter a small cup of water and asked her daughter to share it with her 1 year-old son.\u00a0 And her kids stopped fussing.<\/p>\n

Although I know people who live debt free and have money to spare, this woman is the richest person I know. \u00a0Her family loves, supports, and encourages her.\u00a0 And she enjoys spending time with all of her family members.\u00a0 There is no discord among them.<\/p>\n

Parents, you do not need to be wealthy to raise children who become very wealthy adults.\u00a0 If you love your children every day of their lives, from the time they are born until the day you die, your children will grow up and become some of the richest people in the world.<\/p>\n

Please don’t let your children become poor people with money.<\/p>\n
