WHO MANAGES YOUR MONEY?

Leora Garner

As an investment advisor, I have had a lot of experience in managing money. However, it would be inaccurate for me to take credit for the good decisions I have made over the years. I rely on God to guide me; I trust the spiritual intuition we all have that comes from God. The Bible refers to it as a "still small voice" that leads us in the right path (see I Kings 19:9–12).

When I was a young girl, my father began to teach me about the stock market. He showed me how to read annual reports and how to get the information necessary to make informed decisions. But he always emphasized that after I had digested the information, I was to pray about it and listen to that still small voice before making any move. That advice has proven indispensable to me over the years.
