This guest post was written by Go Banking Rates, bringing you the best interest rates on financial services nationwide, as well as informative content and helpful tools.

Spending has a lot in common with eating: both are about consumption, both require money, and too much of either can lead to serious problems. While the problems manifest themselves in different ways — an over-eater’s waistline expands while an over-spender’s bank account shrinks — the excessive behaviors that caused them can both be curbed by going on a diet. Before you begin your quest to get your personal finances in better shape, take a moment to get organized. Organizing your spending diet around a few simple steps could go a long way to pulling the whole thing off – don’t forget, diets of any kind are notoriously difficult to maintain. Stay calm, get organized, stay focused and start saving.

This article is by Fred at One Project Closer. Fred’s blog is home improvement focused, but he also enjoys personal finance from a Christian perspective.

I grew up with the benefit of Christian parents who made giving to God’s work a top priority. My mom regularly reminded my siblings and I that all the money on earth was God’s anyway, and that we are called to give him His tithes and our offerings as a way for us to participate in His ministry. To do otherwise—particularly with respect to tithing—would be to steal from Him.
