Tax Day Behind Us

I’m Miriam Neff, and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, with Wise Women Managing Money.

M Tax Day is behind us. Instead of forgetting and facing forward, let’s look back and learn.  Your tax document reveals much about you. 

Income shows where and how you work.  Scripture says much about that.  Proverbs says be diligent, fair, honest weights.  He can bless our work.

V Deductions show our generosity.  What and who do we value.  The tax deduction for charitable causes is not a forever guarantee.  It’s our current privilege.  We may think money such as cash, first, but there’s other ways to donate like appreciated assets or through wills, trusts, bequeaths. 

M You need not wait until the end of the year, rush to determine this year’s deductions. Bless earlier and often.  Pray and act today.
