If someone uses this verse against you when you need to communicate a boundary, here’s how you could kindly and confidently respond: One of my greatest joys is to cheer on those I love and support their endeavors. And at the same time, I’m responsible to not extend myself past what my budget allows, therefore, I can’t continue to give you money. In no way is this an indication that I don’t care—I do. I’ll just need to show my care and support in a different way.
