Have you ever reached the end of the month wondering, “Where did all my money go?”
You’re not alone—and you’re not out of options.
Most people don’t have a money problem. They have an intention problem. We spend without thinking, swipe without purpose, and save only what’s left—if anything is left at all. But there’s a better way.
It’s called intentional living, and it changes everything.
What Is Intentional Living?
Intentional living means making conscious, value-driven decisions in every area of life—including your money. It’s choosing to take control instead of drifting through financial chaos. It’s spending with purpose. Saving on purpose. Living on purpose.
It doesn’t require perfection—just direction.
When you decide to live intentionally, every choice becomes a vote for the life you want to build.
Small Financial Habits = Big Results Over Time

Most people overestimate what they can do in a week and underestimate what they can do in a year.
When it comes to money, small, consistent steps are the real game-changer.
Choosing to pack your lunch instead of eating out.
Putting an extra $20 toward your debt each week.
Saying no to that impulse buy because you have a bigger goal in mind.
These decisions may seem small in the moment, but they compound over time—just like debt or interest. The difference is, intentional choices build freedom, not bondage.
Where Faith, Mindset, and Money Meet
As a financial coach who believes in biblical principles, I know firsthand that money is a heart issue as much as a math issue. Scripture teaches us that we are stewards, not owners (Psalm 24:1). That means we are called to manage what we have with wisdom and purpose.

Money reveals what we value. And when we choose to align our spending with our values—faith, family, generosity—we experience peace that no credit score can offer.
Mindset matters.
What you believe about money will shape how you handle it. If you believe you’re always going to struggle, you’ll make decisions that reflect that belief. But when you believe change is possible, you’ll start living like it.

Final Thought
Living intentionally with your money isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being purposeful. And that purpose leads to progress.
Make one intentional choice today. Then do it again tomorrow. That’s how change happens.
You were created to live on purpose—don’t let your money tell you otherwise.
