Confession

November 10, 2008 by Andrew 3 Comments

I struggle with money… not making it but giving it away. I would like to be able to give to the church. But its hard for me. I have a hard time dropping 10% in my 401k every week. I want to give to the church, Its been on my heart for awhile. It is hard for me to give up that control to give to anything. I just need to let God take it off my heart.

I was up at 4 am this morning… I have a hard time sleeping. I was doing some blog rounds when I came across this post on thisisreverb titled 50,000 pairs in 50 days

So without thinking I donated. If I would have thought about it I would not have done it. I am not saying don’t research who you donate to. I have heard of them before so I knew about them already. The company is called soles 4 souls.

    I guess its a good thing that you didn’t think about it then. If everyone did less thinking and more giving the world wouldn’t be barefoot.

    Good for you! You know, when I first became a Christian I also stressed about giving. I remember having a whole blow out with my husband because he wanted to give 10% of gross and I wanted to give 10% of net. The Holy Spirit will convict you about giving. You’ll be conformed in His time.

    The most important thing is to be a cheerful giver, God doesn’t need your 401k money, He wants your heart.
