I AM GLAD THAT GOD  IS NOT LIKE MOST OF US.

He is not stingy.
He is amazingly generous.
He has given us everything we need, it is just up to us to receive them.
And He orders us to be like Him. God wants His children to be as generous as He is.

I have this crazy idea.

What if the offertory basket during the Mass will have these interesting features: When you put a big a amount of money, it will not make a sound at all. But if you drop a P10 coin it tinkles like a bell. If you place a P5 coin, it blows a whistle. If you put just P1, everyone will hear a gunshot. When you put nothing, the basket takes your picture.

I believe that we need to give God what He deserves.
And I know you will agree with me that God deserves everything we have – because everything comes from Him. So we have to give Him our all: money, properties, clothes, jewellery, even our life. But God, in all His wisdom, tells us to give Him at least our tithes. When I say at least, I mean you can give more than 10 percent.

I have heard hundreds of stories of people who were faithful to their tithing and were super blessed by God. They believe that God cannot be out given.
Whether we like it or not, God will repay us a hundredfold for what we have given Him.

I came to know this truth growing up in church when I was a mere teenager. So I offered to God the first salary I ever received. I went to bank and got the money. After which I went to church and prayer, “Lord, I know that I cannot repay everything you have done to me. I also know that you cannot be outgiven. But still, Lord receive my offering to your. All the money I throw up to the heavens is Yours, but anything that goes down will be mine.”

To my utter dismay, everything I threw up went down. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Thank God He really cannot be out given. (I also thank God for the Law of Gravity.)

Kidding aside, I have been tithe-giver since I was 17 years old and I can tell you for a fact that God truly cannot be outdone in generously.

I challenge you to give more to God. Give Him what He deserves for He has been blessing you even if you do not deserve.
