Tithe and Offering

[caitlincares]

One is 10 percent of your earnings, the other is "AND MORE".
At least that is the way I remember it.

As older singles, especially those without ex's and children:
Do you give "And More"?

Of course, "AND MORE" could refer to your time as well as your finances.

I like to listen to hear when someone needs help.
And then if possible anonymously help them out.

I have had fun at Christmas time shopping for a whole family.
It gives me joy to do it and hopefully they have joy receiving it.

I can do this because I have very little family to buy for.
Any I do not get gifts for my kitty.

It is a blessing to be able to give of time with simple things like setting up and taken down for church.

It is also a blessing to be able to give special offerings in times of need or in thanks to God for blessings.

I do enjoy sharing with others the blessings that God has given me. I find that not only is the person in need blessed, but also I am blessed in the giving. The Lord loves a cheerful giver. I know sometimes it is hard for me to let go of that gift, but knowing that it is furthering the kingdom of God is sure a great instigator.

I love to tithe. I've been tithing since I was a kid. I give 10% of any monetary gifts I've gotten. It's so cool because you know that God is pleased with a happy giving heart, and the tithes are used for the greater glory of God's kingdom here.

I have a heart for missions so I like having the extra ability to help mission projects.

I went to Dallas, Texas a number of years ago for a work conference.
I went a few days ahead (being single I could do that).
I met up with a Wycliffe mission family that was stationed there at the SIL facility.
I muchly enjoyed visiting the International Missions Museum.

Wycliffe do Bible tranlation work so people can read the gospel in their own language.

I give to a friend who is in the missions field dealing with high school kids (that has to be a challenge! lol!)
