Do You Want A Life Of Abundance?
I’m terrible when it comes to picking gifts for my wife.
The first gift I gave her was a dress.
When I saw it, I thought it was beautiful. But when I gave it to her, I learned again the truth that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Because she said, “Oh Bo, I love you for giving me a dress. Thank you so much. But I suggest you stick to preaching. Your fashion sense is awful.”
I pouted, “You mean you won’t wear the dress?”
She smiled. “If I become suddenly suicidal, perhaps. In other words, I won’t be caught alive wearing that thing.”
But last month, I hit the jackpot. I finally bought her a birthday gift she really adored.
I bought her a book. But it was no ordinary book.
It was a gigantic 1000 page book containing beautifully stunning pictures of the most gorgeous places all over the world. She loved the book because I wrote on the first page, “Sweets, when our kids are grown up, I’ll bring you to these places.”
She loved the book because it wasn’t just a book. It was a promise. I promised, “I’ll grow old with you. I’ll stay with you forever. I’ll love you forever.” Because I wasn’t really giving a book. I was really giving myself.
My marriage is abundant because these past 11 years, I’ve been giving my time, effort, attention, and energy to my marriage.
Here’s what I learned: Life is not one bucket.
Life Is A Collection Of Buckets
You can’t expect abundance in one bucket when you’re giving into another bucket.
Some religious people think that if they give their time to their religious bucket, their family life will be abundant too. That won’t happen.
I’ve met a lot of religious people who are always in church, attending their religious activities, but they don’t give their time, attention, and energy to their family life. Thus, their family life is empty. They complain to God, “Lord, I gave my time to you! Why is my marriage suffering? Why is my relationship with my kids suffering?”
Simple. Because life is not one bucket but a collection of buckets. If you want to harvest abundance in a particular area of your life, you have to plant in that specific bucket.
Remember: Jesus said “Seek first the Kingdom of God…” If God is first, then there must be a second, a third, a fourth…
Some people think God wants them to give all their time to Him and be in church all the time and serve in ministries—neglecting their jobs, businesses, and families. They reason that “because if I put God first, God will take care of all these anyway.”
Not really.
Even Money
I met a woman recently who said, “Bo, for the past 22 years, I was serving the church fulltime. Without a salary. Today, I’m my 54, and I just realized I have no money for my old age. So I’m catching up, starting a small business and investing for the future.”
In between the lines, I could tell that she was asking, “Lord, why didn’t you take care of me financially? I gave my life to you.”
Many preachers I know simply tell people to give 10% to God. I’m one of the few preachers who tell people to give 10% to God (as a guide, not as a law) and also give 20% to their future in the form of paper assets, businesses, real estate, etc. Why? So that they can keep giving to God in their old age.
Let me state this again: I believe that God blesses us when we are generous to Him.
But because we lack financial wisdom, many spiritual people simply consume all of His financial blessings. They spend it all. Instead of setting aside a portion and investing it for their future.
If you want abundance in your finances, you need to give more time, effort, and energy into your financial bucket. Grow in financial wisdom, learn new skills, read financial books, attend financial seminars, and get financial mentors.
So you see, financial abundance is much more than giving to your spiritual bucket. If you want to grow your money, you also need to give to your financial bucket as well.
Where Do You Want To Have Abundance?
Here’s my question.
What bucket of life do you want to experience God’s blessings and abundance? Another way of asking this question: Which bucket in your life is empty or lacking today?
Give to that specific bucket!
· If you want abundance in your “marriage bucket”, give time and attention and love to your spouse.
· If you want abundance in your “family bucket”, give more time and energy and patience to your children.
· If you want abundance in your “financial bucket”, give time to learn and invest in your financial future
· If you want abundance in your “spiritual bucket”, give your time, your service, and your tithes to God.
Season of Delay
Here’s my belief: When you give, you receive.
This is a law in our universe. You’ll even receive much more than what you gave. This is as sure as the sun rising tomorrow. This is 100% guaranteed.
Here’s the great mystery of life: When you give, you don’t lose. You gain.
People don’t see this.
Why? Because between our giving and our receiving, there is a delay. If you want to receive the blessings of your giving, you need to be patient during the season of delay.
People expect instant returns.
But the greatest things in life—a great marriage, a strong family, a happy friendship, financial freedom, and godly character—doesn’t happen instantly.
When you plant, you don’t harvest right away. You have to enter into a season of delay.
So what do you do while you wait?
Keep on giving.
Why Giving To God Is Crucial
Giving to God will train you to give in the other areas of your life. Personally, I don’t believe that tithing is a law for Christians. (Sorry, too long to explain.) But tithing is a great guideline and a fantastic training tool for greater giving. Because the first blessing of giving to God is not abundance but an abundance mentality. Without an abundance mentality, it’ll be difficult to receive abundance in every area of life.
I have a conspiracy theory.
I believe that the entire physical and spiritual universe around you is conspiring, plotting, and conniving to give you massive abundance.
One of the most difficult things to overcome is a scarcity mentality. That there’s a limited amount of blessings in the world.
God is an abundant God, not a God of scarcity.
Today, I meet many people trapped in mediocrity and stagnation today because of their scarcity mentality. They think that God wants them to stay small, live small, and be small.
I’ve met spiritual people who believe they should be poor.
I’ve met good people who believe they should always remain in hardship because they are good people.
I was like this for almost 20 years of my life.
But when I was 30 years old, I changed my thinking. I decided I wanted to become a millionaire missionary. It was crazy but I believed it was possible.
Today, I’m still a missionary. I run 9 non-profit organizations, doing beautiful work in the world. Only one pays me a salary. I can do that because I earn through my small businesses and other investments.
I’ve broken out of that scarcity mentality.
I believe God wants abundance for my life.
And I believe God wants abundance for your life too.
Have you ever met a parent who has a secret desire that their children suffer? Who prays, “Lord, please make my kids poor?”
I doubt it. There are a few deranged parents out there, but a normal father and mother would want the best for their children.
God wants abundance for your life.
No, it’s not primarily money. Abundance is primarily about love. But I believe it includes money—but only so that we can love!
Make Do With My Imperfect Love
Last week, someone told me, “Bo, you’re so selfless.”
“No,” I told her, “I’m a selfish person.”
I really am. I know myself!
But at least, I’m trying to love everyday of my life. Every morning, I pray, “Lord, help me to love the people you will send to my path.”
Before writing this article, I imagined you reading it and I prayed for you. Yes, I love you! My love is very imperfect, but you’ll have to make do with this imperfect love. This is all that I can offer you.
For the past 30 years, I’ve been trying to love people with this imperfect love. Let me share with you the 5 ministries for the poor that I’ve been involved in.
And it’s true: When I gave love, I’ve received so much love. That’s been my experience…
Here are the 5 ministries where I have received so much love…
· Anawim: We’ve picked up 60 abandoned elderly from the streets and give them a loving home. We love and care for them until God calls them home.
· Tahanan ng Pagmamahal: Led by my friend Rey Ortega, we house 18 orphans in a small home in Pasig.
· Pagasa ng Pamilya: Also led by Rey, we now send 95 poor children to school. For the past 30 years, this ministry has graduated hundreds of scholars who are now helping their families.
· Grace to be Born: We counsel pregnant women in crisis who are considering abortion or are being forced to abort their babies. We provide a temporary shelter for them until they give birth. We also care for abandoned babies and facilitate adoption.
· He Cares Foundation: Led by my friend Jodean Sola, He Cares Foundation sends 240 streetkids to school and feeds 300+ of them every week. This ministry also runs a micro-lending program in 6 slum areas. We also built a village for 120+ homes.
Love abundantly.
And receive love abundantly as well.
May your dreams come true,
Bo Sanchez

brother bo,
im already 23 years old and i have not yet starting with my investments. i just read that it was when you were 30 that you seriously considered being financially rich. would you mind sharing your first ventures into business… did you ever experience bankruptcy? i have a very little salary but i’d love to stay in my work.. and i do not have any entrepreneurial experience. do you think i’ll make through into being financially rich?
I believe I am a generous person. Be it help, time or money I give till it hurts. But my spouse is the extreme opposite of me, which in most cases causes our disagreements. I don’t know how I could ever explain and let him see the art of giving. Just to end some arguments, I have started to give behind his back. Not letting him know that I help financially, emotionally and spiritually. May GOD help me enlighten him.
Hi Bro. Bo,
Thanks for this another very inspiring article.
Personally, I really believe in tithing. I am doing it for 10 years now and God really blessed me super abundantly.
I always equate giving into loving in such a way that when I give it\’s really out of my love.
Thank you also Bro Bo that you waken up us again in this article - that life is a collection of buckets which we need to fill-in by giving quality time to each area in order to have a holistic abundance of blessings.
May God bless you more and your family Bro Bo!
Before, I also believe that we have to be poor for us to follow God’s law. But now, after attending seminars with Bro Bo and other financial mentors, I started to build up a new mentality, from a scarcity mentality now to an abundant mentality. After applying what I learned, I’ve found out that I can give more. Hoping I’ll continue this with the help of the Lord.
Hi Bo, this is very true, thank you so much for a wonderful article. I know for a fact that the more you give, the more you receive. The more you teach, the more you learn. I just want to add, when giving, be happy and smile not just with your lips but also with your heart and your thoughts and you will be surprised with what happens next.
Thanks and may your words of inspiration keep on inspiring us!
Dear Bro. Bo, Thank you so much for your inspiring articles. I have forwarded your articles to my friends here in Germany and many other inspiring articles from other sources. One by one, to my surprise, many of them called and said that you are the best, because all of them can relate to your articles being Filipinos living here in Germany. Hopefully, you can also visit us here in Germany and give a talk, or perhaps any part in Europe. If so, kindly inform me thru email.My best regards and God bless you!
Hi Bo,
Thanks for continually inspiring us with your down to earth articles. You are really a blessing to us. God bless you and your family
Hi Bro Bo
You and Bro Mike Velarde inspired me to stand up again even if I’m started to loose hope. I was able to little by little stand again and re gain my faith and hope in God.. Yes, I wanted to have abundance in life, not only in material wealth but also in abundance in love, peace & with spiritual being.. I know God will never forsake me even if I’m super pasaway.. and I know God will help me overcome my problems, help me to rebuild my dreams, grant me to become a better person
I do hope someday I can meet and have a chat with you. I pray that god will continue to bless you with everything what life has to offer for you to continue what you’re doing to make us a better person.
God bless and See you soon…
Dear bro. Bo,
Thanks for your inspiring words! Once again, you hit the mark. I also know a lot of people who serve the church but whose lives are empty. Simply because they only invest in one bucket. I forwarded them this article. I hope they learn from it too. Ingat!
Yes, Bro. Bo, i want a life of abundance and i think everyone wants it. I am working abroad for 14 months already and it has been the same, i am still not able to save because i am helping my family back home. There were many times that i am considering tithing but im not able to do it because i always think that i still have other expenses to look up to. In short, i am not very generous to God. I hope that i will be able to give Him what is for him without any worries. I also want to be a millionaire just like you both financially and spiritually. I hope you will share how you started becoming a millionaire. What are the things that you have done? I know it should start within ourselves. We have to believe that we can acquire abundance because the world is abundant and we have an abundant God. Thank you..
Amen on this brother Bo! I agree with you that the law of giving is so true. In fact, when I feel that my resources are not enough, that’s the time that I give even more!
The Universe will only return what you have planted.:) What you give, you will receive. The good thing is, its always MORE than what you expect.:) Thanks for writing this brother bo!

Thank you Bo!
I’ve been always wondering why do I always feel deprived in relationships. This is the reason, akala ko lagi feeling loved is always about receiving.
I am not being “giving” of my time, attention and love and then here I am, asking God bakit di ako masaya at parang may kulang.
Talagang dapat maalis na yang “scarcity mentality” na yan eh.
hehe!
Lovely article, tinamaan nanaman ako.
Sana mas maaply ko na this time.
Thanks again po!
Thanks Bro Bo
Amen to this article and all your teachings. Be they about abundance ,suffering, joy etc etc….. I am personally experiencing the fruits of your teachings on income streams.
Dear Bro Bo,
You have lighten up my day. In all the hardships along the way, I realize it’s not the end of the line. There is hope. I just turn to the buckets less attended to in my life. Thanks Bro. bo.
Dear Bro. Bo,
Can I set an appointment with you? I’ve decided to leave my job and go free lance believing that I will really make good for the future of my children. Maybe I am just impatient and want outright result, but this did not happen the past months.
I just need guidance and a push so as not to give up.
You’ve been a source of inspiration to many and I know you could help and guide me.
Your words really inspire me..I have seen you on tv one time and after that I just couldnt stop thinking about what I heard from you. I admire the way you speak from the heart.. The sincerity in every word just makes me realize maybe..just maybe there is a way to change how life goes for me now.. I will continue to read your works and Thank you for the inspiration. God Bless us all..
Dear Bro. Bo,
I thank God for bringing you into my life. Reading your articles made me a better person and gave me better outlook in life. You are a blessing to me and to many people. I pray that God will give you the strength and healthy life so that you will continue being a blessing to other people. God bless you and your family always.
Dear Bro. Bo
As always……THANK YOU VERY MUCH! for being an inspiration. I guess, to be a member of the Kergyma Family is the most worthwhile thing I’ve done. May our Good Lord continue to bless you and your ministries.
Thanks Bro Bo for blessing us with another inspiring article.
I will continue to pray for you.
Bo - Maraming Salamat!
This article has placed a spotlight in my life where I know I need to look into. Family and Spiritual life.
You’re always been an inspiration to me and my family. God has blessed you with a lot of gifts that I know, we too have, as time reveals in God hands.
I am a very big fan of yours and want to join your ministry.
Continue sharing God’s Love.

Hi Bro. Bo,
It is really a great experience hearing you in person preach and reading your blog after. Such a wonderful and abundant message you gave. I believe this is what is exactly written in Romans that we should not let our hearts be shaped by the world but rather we should be transformed through the renewal of our mind…and this is exactly what you are doing Bro. Bo, helping us through the ABUNDANCE MENTALITY.
God Bless you Bro Bro.
Thanks so much!
Erness
Hi Bro. Bo,
Thanks for another inspiring article. Your messages keep me in moving to my dreams. Yes!!! I can do it!!!! and you’re right, the MORE you GIVE, the MORE you will RECEIVE . Nothing can really compare on the happiness and satisfaction that you can feel once you did something out of LOVE.
God Bless you more and your family….
Bhel
It’s beautiful Bo.
Let’s continue loving even if our hearts are imperfect. =)
hello Bo,
I understand that being generous to others is good and I don’t have problem sharing blessings.
But how about those asking money for the wrong reasons. i don’t feel comfortable loaning to relatives, knowing they don’t really need it for emergency or to sustain family needs. is it bad to feel this way? my husband and i loaned some relative with quite a substantial amount and they were not able to pay us back. there is one that we refused and now felt bad about us, relationship was ruined. i just don’t understand why sometimes, people do not understand that we cannot always give them what they “think” they want. is it not good to sometimes say “No” simply because you don’t want to be used for showing off to their friends?
hope you can shed some light for me… thanks….
Hi Bro. Bo!
I received an inspiring text message about being generous. And I wanted it to share with you:
A 10 year old boy went to an ice cream shop and asked how much a cone cost. The waiter said, “P15.00.” The boy started counting how much he had in his wallet.
Then he asked, “How much a small cup cost?” The waiter said, “P12.00.”
The boy asked for the small cup. He had it and paid the bill and left.
When the waiter came to pick up the empty cup he was touched. The boy had left 3 pesos as tip for him.
Lesson: (still part of the text message..)
Try giving something to everyone out of whatever little you have. God bless you.
If I received this text months ago, I wouldn’t have appreciated it. Thank you for reminding us the G Force.
Today, still im so caught up with my financial burdens. My debts still keep on rising, i haven’t had received any response from God why am i suffering so much. Why can’t i get and have the financial freedom that I am praying for. I don’t know what to do anymore, I’m broke but i’m still hoping and keep on praying that i will have the solution to my problems, God willing, in His time.
I keep on praying that I become a blessing to others. Please do pray for me. Thank you.

thanks for this bro. Bo.
Hi bro. bo.!
Thank you for always inspiring us… I am still a learning young lady about financial stewardship. Had a lot of mistakes in the past of handling it and now moving forward to improve more and more each day…though, medyo challenge sya haha.. But, through the help of God, the Feast , your books and some seminars i’ve attended to , I’m learning so much.
Question: In giving our tithes,(which I usually give in our church) is it ok to just give it to the underpriviledged family members or close family who i think could help them too. Like for a psychologically challenged aunt and another aunt who focused her time and energy for her mom, but both of them eh ayaw na lang tulungan ng ibang family members kase talagang “pasaway” literally. They call them nuisance already, that breaks other family members heart. I just don’t know how to stand on this.
Thanks for your time reading it.
God Bless!
This is not really related to the topic below but i just wnt to let it out from my heart.
Ive just broken up up with a toxic relationship, i dont knw where to turn to and whom to talk. He has a gf and stil i fell inluv with him ( we have MU), its my first time.. Thank God i was still in my senses to keep my values, i always read ur blog & comments, it helps..
I asked for your prayers to keep my decision final, pls help me pray, i do believe in prayers.
and thank you, hope for your understanding.
Hi Bo!
Amen to all that you have said.. God is indeed using you powerfully! I submitted a comment to you last time.. I inquired about having the thick face to humbly ask you to mentor me. I heard that a staff from Kerygma was looking for me in my office last week to confirm about my request. I was out on mission at that time. Bo, Is there a room for such a possibility? I really need guidance right now. I’m a youth missionary in a Catholic Organization. I had a vision years ago and since then, I saw life as a mission to accomplish. When I read this article now, I realize that my dreams for the vision is somewhat similar to yours. Like you and the rest of our fellow brethren missionaries, I want to also do my part in making a difference in the world through Christ.. But the first thing to ask is, “Can I give something I don’t have?”, “Is my Bible enough to feed the poor?” You know the answer better than I. Your help will greatly aid me in fulfilling my mission in life. If you wish to consider, please do contact me in my cellphone number- 09276810058 or landline- 422 2008. May God bless you, all the more for others to be more blessed. More Power!

I believe that everybody wants to be rich and be abundant in all aspects of life. There are some people who justifies being poor because they are unable to make it rich. The only people I know who wants to be poor are the ones who are already rich or have experienced to be rich like St Francis of Assisi or Mother Theresa. They are well known because they are scarce. Rich people who stay rich and poor people who stay poor are nobodies unless they have exceptional talent in an exceptional circumstance. I agree it is not wrong to be rich but there is a godly way and a satanic way of attaining it.
” Love God with all your heart, with all your mind, with all your strength… ” Jesus says. So i am not worried ’bout the other buckets in my life; if i seek first the big bucket of God, if i spend all my time with Him, it’s never a waste, for God in all His Bounty, will take care of my needs / the smaller buckets, as long as i put all my trust in Him and seek first His Kingdom , the rest He will provide. He will fill my smaller buckets to the brim, even overflowing. No , i need not worry ’bout the smaller buckets, as long as i keep the things that are lasting, intact. ” Come to Me all of you who are tired and carrying heavy load, and I will give you rest , for My yoke is easy and My burden light… ” says Jesus. I would rather rest in Jesus , and not worry . My life would be stress - free.
Have a good day everyone !
Thanks Bro. Bo.
God bless you and your family.
Hi Bro. Bo,

Hi! Bro Bo, U are really a man whose heart is full of goodness and love for the people.
Love u Bro. Bo.
hi bro bo! Thank you for a new wonderful article. It blessed me so much.. Hope you could visit Iloilo again.. many wants to hear your powerful talk again.. Hope that you would encouragethe people of iloilo that even if your not the speaker for the month they would continually attend the feast and invite more people also to attend the feast. Its because when you started not preaching here in iloilo the number of the feast attendee decreases. It was sad to hear when i invited a friend to attend the feast, he said that if bro. bo would be the speaker he’ll attend but if not they won’t attend. Hope to see you again.

Dear Bo,
I thank God for making you as His instrument of wisdom and knowledge. I’ve been serving SFC for 3 years and was recently tapped to become a Unit head. I do love and enjoy serving God…a couple of days back before reading your article my aunt and uncle approached me. They told me to relax and slow down in my service. One thing that my uncle told that hit me hard “there are a lot of good leaders in the community who devout themselves in service but forgot to take care of their health and importantly their families”.
At first I felt bad…I was telling myself that I’m okay…my health is fine…i still have my family…but after reading this article…my mind was opened up to the reality that i’m getting there…to a point that i don’t have time to even call my parents in the Philippines to check their condition or just to say “HI”.
Thank you Bo! May you continue to inspire more people with your gift of wisdom.
God bless.
Your words always inspire me. I have known someone who became so dear to me and on one of her article she said that you are her mentor. I was so astonished and told her that it must have been great being connected with you. She told me that you can also be my mentor and that we don’t have to always know our mentors personally. All I have to do is to continue to read your teachings. An so now I can also say that Bro. Bo is my mentor. =)
Thank you, Tito Bo….Truly inspiring…
God Bless…=)

May I know the title of the book that you gave to your wife?

Hi Bro. Bo,
Thanks for again and again for this wonderful topic.
I am generous to the people that I love.
That I love very much.
For example, my family.
Right now with a little more income coming, if they ask for ask for something I’m really excited to give as long as it’s in my budget.
That’s for my family.
But for those who are not really close to me, I’m not like that.
I don’t know.
Is something wrong?
Thanks Bro. Bo.
God bless you and your family
hi bro bo..
i’ve been reading alot of your inspirational stories but its very difficult for me to aplly it in my own life. please help me. i really want to change.
Hi Bro. Bo,
My husband and I have been seriously considering adoption. I have been praying to God to guide us in this pursuit, until I came across with your article above and I learned about “Grace to be born” and “Tahanan ng pagmamahal”. I’m aware that you have a number of charity institution, but I learned the said two only now. You see, I have been giving donations to the Shepherd’s Voice but I guiltily admit, it’s been on and off. I have never been really serious in giving to charity. I think this is the sign I’m asking from God to lead us to the right path.
Please guide us on how we can get in touch with Grace to be born and Tahanan ng Pagmamahal.
Dear Kerygma family,
What happened to the preacherinbluejeans website? I can’t open it for the past days.
Thanks!

As IMG brokers, WE all have three (3) Opportunities:
1) Financial Literacy: we have the opportunity to master financial management & investments, become our own financial adviser, and not rely on others to plan for our financial future.
“Money without financial intelligence is money soon gone.”
- Robert Kiyosaki
2) Bypass the Middleman: while we become more financially literate, we also have the opportunity to gain direct access to the financial industry by becoming our own broker. Whatever financial product we need, we buy from ourselves and get the commissions.
“Bypassing the middleman is one of the greatest secrets of the rich…They just let their money go around, and never go through a middleman.”
and lastly,
3) Entrepreneurship: we also have the opportunity to increase our cash flow by building our own brokerage business in the biggest industry in the world—the Financial Industry. And in the process, we have the opportunity to educate more people and help change people’s lives.
“Never rely on a single source of income.”
- Warren Buffet, the world’s greatest investor & one of the richest men
Our Mission: No Family Left Behind.
Our Vision: To Lead and Dominate the Financial Industry.
