Saving for Retirement

What does the Bible say about saving for retirement?  

Should we store up crazy amounts of money or refuse to plan ahead at all?

Neither of these is God’s way.

The Bible encourages us to save and plan ahead – like the ant who works hard and stores up at all times..

But we are never supposed to hoard money

The best thing you can do is set a reasonable standard of living while you’re still working full time. Open a retirement account and save steadily while trusting the Lord. Then, if and when you do retire, continue to stay active! Work in some capacity to stay healthy and honor the Lord. He will faithfully provide.
