Faith Tabernacle started reading
Luke 6:38 every service before we receive the offering sometime in 2011. For those of you not familiar with this scripture it says; "Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. (Luke 6:38 KJV)"
What a verse & what a promise that God has given us! He daily blesses me yet I find myself complaining & feeling stressed! I know we all do it but the next time you find yourself stressed or complaining of all you don't have, think of all that you do have & start with thanking him for another day of life!
Today I opened my Georgia Power Bill & went to get my checkbook when I noticed the stub showed my amount due was "$0.00" so me being a bit negative (yes I know you've never been there) :) I called & the representative says "yes ma'am we have to send a bill every month but you don't owe & it shows you have a $65 credit" so I literally can't stop smiling because we've had so many people testify at church on Budget Sunday about how God blessed them with a check in the mail & I tell my husband one day I'm going to open the mail & have a check! This wasn't a check but it was me not having to put a check in the mail & getting an additional blessing! My family has been blessed time & time again; pressed down, shaken together & running over! The Bible is complete truth & if you have trouble believing that, start giving to the church & into God's kingdom & watch it unfold right in front of you!
My kids have a Veggie Tales DVD about thankfulness & the song from it says "A thankful heart is a happy heart"! Although my 4 year old doesn't quite understand the true meaning he sings it with confidence & I hope to raise my boys to truly believe that! Our treasures are not here in this world but in Heaven & I thank God for the blessings of each & every day!
