Since coming to government, my colleagues and I have been putting in place our Economic Action Strategy to build a strong and prosperous economy for a safe and secure Australia.
The Budget, to be delivered tomorrow, is another important step forward in strengthening our economy to provide for Australia's long-term future.
For many months, the Government has been carefully and methodically working on this Budget. We've had an audit report, we've dealt with the experts and we've undertaken detailed economic analysis.
It will be a responsible Budget and it will be a fair Budget. It will be fair because all of us will play our part.
By sharing the load, we lighten the load - and together we can chip away at the debt and deficits that are currently costing Australians $1 billion every single month in interest, in dead money.
While the debt and deficit problem that we face is not of our making, the Coalition Government is taking responsibility for getting the Budget back on track.
And we are honouring our commitments to end the waste, to get the Budget under control and to build the infrastructure of the 21st century.
Our legislation to scrap the carbon tax is ready to be passed -- this carbon tax is a $550 a year hit on the average Australian family.
So tomorrow night Australians will see that the Government is keeping its commitment to repair the Budget, to strengthen the economy and to invest in the roads of the future.
This is an important time for our country - the Government will build a stronger, more sustainable economy where every Australian can share in the benefits.
Regards,
Tony Abbott
Prime Minister

Every temptation is an offer to question God's love or doubt his wisdom.

Father,I thank You for giving me the power to live in abundance. I choose to be faithful to You and Your Word. I choose to diligently follow Your commands and look for Your hand of blessing on everything I set my hands to in Jesus’ name. Amen.

YOUR WEEK IS FRUITFUL!
The Scripture tells us that He gives us the power to gain wealth. Wealth is simply having abundance. He wants you to live in abundance so that He can use you to be a blessing to others. When we do things God’s way, we get God’s results. In other words, when we live in excellence and integrity, when we follow the Word of God, we will walk in His blessing.Deuteronomy 8:18 says,And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth.
Notice one more thing about this verse. It says that “He gives us the power to get wealth.” See, God gives us the ability. He gives us creative ideas and inventions, but we have to be diligent to do our part and step out and use what He’s given us. We have to sow good seed in order to see the harvest that He has promised. Today, choose to be faithful. Choose to be diligent. Choose to follow God in everything and watch Him pour out His abundant blessing on you.You are blessed.
