There is a belief that seems to settle well with many women, and it’s that it’s okay and absolutely fine for them to not work but keep spending. The original design of women before the fall of man was for us to assist our husbands. Yes man fell and that made God give man and woman defined roles. Every capable woman should be in a position to assist when there is a need for it. Assist in buying groceries, assist in doing the little expenses and leaving the bigger ones for the husbands. As women, we should be able to meet needs without waiting for weeks or months simply because our only means is by our husbands. As we pray for this, we will ask the Lord for a balance as we run our careers, home and the ministry God has committed to us.
