When a nation reaches the point where its smallest coin costs more to make than it’s worth… it ought to make us stop and think.
The U.S. just minted its last penny.
Not because we don’t need them anymore…
but because inflation has eaten away the value so much that a one-cent coin is now worth less than the metal it’s made of.
That’s not just an economic decision — it’s a warning.
When the smallest things lose value, bigger things are usually not far behind.
Inflation doesn’t happen overnight.
It happens slowly… quietly… one lost penny at a time.
And while Washington shrugs, families feel it.
Groceries. Gas. Housing. Every dollar stretched thinner.
The penny disappearing is just a symptom — not the cause.
Maybe it’s time to ask the hard question:
If our money isn’t holding its value… what else is slipping away that we’re not paying attention to?
As Christians, we’re called to be watchmen — to stay alert, to see the signs, and to anchor our hope not in Washington, not in headlines, not in the dollar… but in the God who never changes.
Stay watchful. Stay grounded. Stay faithful.
