Dear Pastor,

I have a question as it relates to giving one's spouse money. What if after you have paid your tithes, bills and all expenses, what remains is just to take you to work until the next pay cheque? How would you handle this situation? Would you say that this can affect the relationship?

A.B

Dear A.B.,

People who budget learn to meet all their bills. They live within their means or below their means. And if your girlfriend is not working and things are tight with you, she would work with you and learn to take less for the week seeing that you are struggling to keep things together.

Pastor
