Snippet from God’s Blog that should really make you think…

It might be fun to just everyone on pause for a bit like in that old Twilight Zone episode with the stopwatch. Only I’d be holding the stopwatch, so it wouldn’t break with everyone frozen in time. I’d put everyone on pause, download some information into them, and then when they start up again they would understand that the following system is in place:

They all work for Me and know I AM the boss and own everything on the planet. Money is still in place, but they know at the end of the week the paycheck all goes to Me. They just hand the check over to Me. The economic system is still the same, so some people make millions more than others, but still they know it all goes to Me and that I have the option of doling out to each of them as much or as little as I please.

Imagine everyone’s surprise and joy and excitement when they find out that I AM giving them nine out of every ten dollars they made for me.

And the great thing would be that the other dollar would totally dissolve all world hunger and poverty and homelessness. It would educate millions and be used to cure disease and solve all the insurance problems and malpractice dilemmas. Talk about insurance reform!

Nine out of every ten dollars seems like a lot when thought of from that perspective, but when we consider the money we make as ours, it’s so hard to give up even a dollar. It’s time for me to have a change in perspective!

I’ve been really bad about tithing the past few years since I don’t have a church home. I have supported individuals in their mission work, as well as charities, but I need to give to the church as well. Be praying for me as I a) try to find a church to settle down at and b) that I can get back in the habit of giving at least 10% consistently.
