Monday, April 19, Give

Why is giving so hard when God has promised to take care of all my needs and if I am generous in our giving He will be generous to me. Great Promise. Now to just believe and do it. Truthfully, we have begun to give more over the past few years and our needs have been met without fail. I have begun to pray for specific needs concerning our debt. If we were debt free, we could give more. I do not believe God wants me to forget my obligations and give him all my income. I have responsibilities and God wants me to take care of those. He has helped me find a way to become debt free in just a few years and I believe He is being faithful to us because of our desire to give more. I also pray this scripture daily. Psalms 139: 23-24. Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughs: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Father, help me to focus on you and to give what you lead me to give and to leave the results to you.
