Monday, September 24th, 2007 – How willing is willing?

Hello everyone,
How are you doing on this day? I hope well. People often say, when you do not have a giving attitude when you have a little bit, it will be even much more harder when you have a lot more. So the whole, ah, when I have more I will give more hardly works. We see that with God, He loves when you give Him willingly, cheerfully, no looking back kind of giving. Presently listening to a song saying … everything I have You gave, what I give You already have, … Yet, even though He owns everything and even if He was hungry, He asks us to honour us with our giving. We see this reflected in both the old and the new testaments.

“AND the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring Me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take My offering.” Exodus 25v1&2

“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9v6&7

Have a blessed day.

Our dearest Heavenly Father,
We thank You so much for today. We thank You for Your lovingkindness and Your tendermercies. We adore and appreciate You for everything You are doing in our lives. Daddy, we thank You for Your mercies and Your constant care of us – for never ever failing nor forsaking us. Father Lord, we pray that in any way we have been giving to You or for good works, grudgingly or of necessity, please forgive us. We pray for the grace to give willingly from our hearts and the knowledge of what it means to give willingly from our hearts. Have Your way in our lives o Lord. We bless You, we appreciate You and exalt You. We say Lord of the harvest, please send forth labourers into Your harvest, for the harvest indeed is plenteous, but the labourers are few. Thank You Father, thank You Son, thank You Holy Spirit of God, in Jesus mighty name we pray, amen.
