Giving!

February 20, 2024 Monday Message:

Mark 12:42 NLT: “Then a poor widow came into the temple and dropped two small coins in the collection box.”

Others gave more, but this widow gave all that she had. Nothing is too good for the Lord!

Jews were commanded to tithe, a Hebrew word that means 1/10th. For some people, the tithe is a minimum amount, but for others it’s a maximum. It they gave 10%, they were all done giving! Not a good plan! I believe if God blesses us with abundance, it’s so that we can help others. 10% isn’t a limit, but it’s a good starting point. Consider the needs of your church and your community, and give accordingly.

Luke quotes Jesus: “You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things.”
