Today's words of encouragement word is Borrow: which means to take something with an agreement or intention to give it back or repay it in kind or equivalent to, or adopt as an idea. I believe the bible when it said the rich rulet over the poor and the borrower is servant to the lender, which means in today's world of finances, we are all servants to the lender because we don't have the cash to pay for the things we want in life.We all get loans for things we need or want in this life, that why we're all up to our eye balls in debt.

The bible also tells us to give to him that asketh thee and from him that would borrow of them turn him not away, which means if someone come to us and ask us for something , being cash or something else, we suppose to give to them; regardless of they want to do with it, and if someone want to borrow from us, the bible says to not turn them away. There are people today, that refuse to give anything to those that ask for a hand out, because they think they're being used for their goodness sake. The thing is, when ever you give, give it from your heart no matter what that person do with it. you will have done what God's word had asked of you.
