There are a number of documents related to our lives that could be termed theological documents. That is, they tell us what we worship.

A job performance review is one of them. Where we spend our time, what we honour and do not honour, our honesty and integrity at work all may reflect a piece of our standing in Christ.

As our devotional reading suggests (in the journey to a generous life we are taking together), our bank and credit card statements also tell us what we worship. Jesus said, "Your heart is where your treasure is" (Matthew 6:21). Where we spend our money suggests the things that are the most important in our lives.

Maybe next time we get a letter from the bank, it would be good to sit down with our families and discuss what we value.
