This is.. Unbelievable…
Some years ago, in conversation with my friend, she shared what her dreams were. In reality, we were both in the field of finance, with very different roles than the dreams she shared, and what she envisioned for her future. Fast forward a few years and life looked differently for both of us. As she […]
Still Trying to Say ‘No’
Even after more than 10 years of writing, there are still times I tell God, “I don’t want to do that” or “I don’t wanna talk about that”. Today’s topic is one of those days. I’d much rather talk about all the positive lessons, but if you’re familiar with my early writing journey, one of […]
Count the Cost
Count the Cost Aug 11 Written By Kaysian “Kaysi” Gordon, CFP®, CKA®, CPA, MBA This post was originally written for https://www.christianfinancialadvisorsnetwork.com/ I have been reading a devotional based on the book of Ruth.

From Rough to Beautiful
Upon returning from my recent trip, as I drove the next morning on the main road, close to my home, I noticed that the roads had been made very rugged. Instead of being annoyed at what I considered to have been pretty good roads before I left, I actually got a sense of anticipation and […]
Even Though
As I was preparing for a recent trip, I did my normal process of checking in when the window opened. I noticed that the seats were in the very back of the plane, which I did not particularly care for, but as they had been very expensive tickets, I refused to pay additional to choose […]
A Worthy Celebration
I’ve been sitting with my emotions today. I woke up early for a Sunday morning, but my heart is filled with so much joy. Today I celebrate the miracle of my daughter. I still find it hard to believe that 14 years have already flown by since I was told that I was having an […]
Did I Tell You to do This?
Some years ago, as I was relatively new to starting my business, I had been given guidance to join Facebook groups that would have my target audience. I joined a few of them. Well, not my most natural thing to do, but started commenting on other people’s posts, as this was the suggestion. One particular […]
Automate Your Savings and Your Life
Some years ago, when I had just finished college, but right before I started my accounting career (I’m an accountant by training), I started using the credit cards that had been provided at the school gate. Do you remember those days? If you signed up, you got a free t-shirt or something free – and […]
Commit the Plan
Are there some doors that you have knocked on, and no matter how hard you’ve knocked they’ve just not opened? Yesterday, as I was going through my devotion, I came across a passage of scripture, opened my Bible to the place, and then shortly after as I was scrolling social media, the same exact scripture […]
The Goodness of God
For many years, I did not have the words to share on this. As we are approaching the fourth anniversary of my grandmother‘s passing and the 19th anniversary of my brother’s passing, I am choosing to celebrate their lives and to honor their memory. The day before my grandmother passed away, my aunt who had […]
