It had been a while since we had tithed at church, and well, money was kinda tight. I was sitting in church last sunday, and I knew I needed to tithe, but I also had a lot of bills that needed paying. Well, I knew that if I did tithe, God would bless us, so I wrote out a check for $100 and put it in the offering plate. I knew it was more than we could afford, but I also knew God would take care of us. Sure enough, later in the week, I paid all the bills and all our money was gone. Well, the next day, Stacee recieved word that we would be in for a small windfall of money. More than enough to get us through the month!
In his second letter to the Corinthians, Paul says, "We live by faith, not by sight." (2 Cor 5:7). A big part of faith is taking the leap before we get our blessing, and each time we do, God is sure to reward us!
