Poverty stems from laziness or a lack of character is a stereotype that many compare to those that are poor.
Being wealthy can be perceived as an industrious and a person being strong and of great character.
Wealthy individuals take advantage of the opportunity while the latter of those in poverty are usually victims and have systemic circumstances forced upon their lives.
Both demand system changes in order to redistribute equality of tax laws, basic income and relieve discomforts of poverty.
The abundance of wealth allows valuable possessions and can be portrayed as powerful and sovereign.
Wealth brings insolence, create envy, and lead others to always need to be incontrol of the voices that are marginalized.
Good character has virtue Moral excellence and righteousness; goodness. Having a combination of integrity, love, and determination all comes from God.
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus

Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me
Being born into wealth can bring a easy life. Bring born into poverty can bring a life of pain and adversity.
The positive side to poverty is doing what makes you happy. Money not defining who you are as person or building your character. Not needing wealth to remain a good person. There is not excuse to stay in poverty and continue to allow it to exist. Living up to your full potential.
How do you live up to your full potential?
Capitalism or extreme wealth have a very negative effect on society. Capitalism create a concept of inequality and monopolizes power in society for those that are wealthy. It is intended to disallow sustainability and growth production for those that are in poverty.

Start a budget
Save as much as you can
Get financial counseling
Practice biblical affirmations
Set personal and smart goals
Everyday speak words of confidence
Have consistency
Read financial books

42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you
Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand
And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus
Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved

Romans 4:17 17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
2 Corinthians 4:18 – While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Isaiah 55:11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
Proverbs 18:20-21
20 From the fruit of their mouth a person’s stomach is filled;
with the harvest of their lips they are satisfied.
21 The tongue has the power of life and death,
and those who love it will eat its fruit
Matthew 15:18
But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them.
Proverbs 18:21 – Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof
Marriage
Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them
However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband
Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”
1 Corinthians 11:3 “But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God
John 10:30 I and the Father are one.”
Now concerning the matters about which you wrote: “It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.” But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband. The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord

So will it be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40Two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. 41Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. 42Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come. 43But understand this: If the homeowner had known in which watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect”
1 Corinthians 15:52 “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed”
Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ came and died on the cross for your sins according to the scriptures, and that he rose again on the third day. You must understand that it is God only – not your religious works of self righteousness – who by his grace called you, and by that grace saved you. Your faith to believe Jesus came and died on the cross for your sins. He is your savior. This makes you saved. Period!
Please pray this Prayer of Salvation
Dear Lord,
I admit that I am a sinner. I have done many things that don’t please you. I have lived my life for myself only. I am sorry, and I repent. I ask you to forgive me.
I believe that you died on the cross for me, to save me. You did what I could not do for myself. I come to you now and ask you to take control of my life; I give it to you. From this day forward, help me to live every day for you and in a way that pleases you.
I love you, Lord, and I thank you that I will spend all eternity with you.
Amen.
For with the heart man believes unto Righteousness and with the mouth, confession is made unto Salvation.

Mental Health: Balancing Life and Mental Health
Mental health can be defined in many ways, however, to generalize by understanding the word mentally healthy means that it is a lifestyle. There are so many obstacles that disrupt the balance of mental health. These obstacles can be anything from family issues; balancing work life; financial uncertainties and quite a few others. Whereas, combating the issues that interfere with everyday life can impact maintaining great mental health. Indeed, being able to understand the intersectionality of maintaining mental health while resolving life issues that can pose a threat to an individual overall mental health. It is important to consider focusing on solutions to life problems rather than focusing on the latter of the problem itself. Many times, people will have a problem with every solution that is presented to them during times of adversity. Specifically, being able to create opportunity in the presence of adversity is all in the individual mindset. Our minds can shape opportunity if we allow it. Attitudes can be solution-driven or problem-driven.
Transparency
The attitude can aid in forming good mental health. Specifically, it would depend on the individual and their mindset of focus. Problems continue to exist when there is great attention given to the problem and not the solution to that problem. When problem-driven attitudes are trying to overcome obstacles they can find themselves repeating cycles that lead to a continuation of prolonged situations that may create new problems. However, a solution-driven attitude will always create outlets of opportunity that will lead them out of adversity, thus, delivering great mental health. In contrast, attitudes that are problem-driven will embark on a journey of defeat if their attitudes are not changed which leads to concerns. Identifying the intersectionality between great mental health (x-axis) and mental health concerns (y-axis) can only be identified when the attitude of that individual allows their attitude to impact their success negatively or positively. Similar to an x and y axis on a chart.
Solution Driven Environment
To embrace slowing down, individuals should tackle the problems of life by taking breaks when needed; creating smart goals; minimizing or extinguishing relationships that cause negative thinking; and collaborating by forming connections with others that have positive attitudes about life. Your environment can significantly impact your attitude about everything. The people that you spend your time with the most can influence your focus in life. It is imperative to protect your space; your thinking and your focus in life because it shapes your #mentalhealth. You can have great mental health or have mental health concerns if you allow negative thinking to direct your path in life.
The word rebuke in Hebrew #8433 is tokechah tokachath and pronounced to-kay khaw to-kakh-ath which means chastisement, to correct and reproof

As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear.
