The love of money is the root of all Evil.
Where are you in your Spiritual walk with Him?
My God has directly touched my life many times, performing miracles that have saved me and then directed my life. I am ready to be judged.
I do not love money. One of my strengths is that I am a good steward of money. If you do not understand the difference I cannot help you.
DW and I agree that we must give in good times and bad times. We use that God-given ability to give to our Church, charities, and families in need in our community, with no regard to the IRS and tax-deductibility. Many times we have taken people, poor in possessions and broken in spirit into our home. Sometimes for months, and sometimes for years. We work with them and there is great reward in seeing them return to a place in the community.
I will not discuss amounts or percentages with you. Read Matthew 6:1-4. God knows the depth of our finances, and I am comfortable with that.
What is your Spiritual walk like?
