| Friday, January 15 Why We Give And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD's. It is holy to the LORD.
According to Forbes magazine's March 2009 ranking, Bill Gates, retired co-founder of the Microsoft Corporation, is the world's richest person with a net worth of approximately $40 billion--down from $58 billion in 2008. Suppose you were feeling particularly generous one day and offered Mr. Gates a penny to help with his daily expenses. He might take your penny so as not to offend you, but does he really need it? What is one cent compared to 40 billion dollars? Comparing America's smallest coin with the world's largest fortune doesn't come close to equaling the disparity between God's wealth and our tithes and offerings. Does the God who owns everything (Job 41:11b; Haggai 2:8) need our money? Of course not. Why, then, do we give? We give a tenth (or more) of everything to the Lord as a reminder that nothing belongs to us--that everything we have comes from Him and belongs to Him. Giving is an obedient act of worship that reveals what we believe about that which we call "ours." God doesn't need us to give for His sake, but we need to give for ours. Giving is how we remember how much we have been given. Are you giving God what is right or what is left?

Attic Full of Bees
See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Ephesians 5:15-16

Matthew 25:2-13
In 1984, a St. Louis woman noticed a few bees buzzing around in her attic. She made no effort to deal with them because there were so few. But over the summer, bees continued to fly in and out of her attic vent while the woman was unaware and unconcerned. Eventually, the whole attic became a hive, and the ceiling of the second-floor bedroom caved in under the weight of hundreds of pounds of honey and thousands of angry bees. Though the woman escaped serious injury, she was unable to repair the damage to her home.
Delaying what is necessary might be the definition of procrastination, but the question we need to ask is, What is taking the place of the thing that is necessary? If we are simply ignoring what needs to be done, wasting time, and not fulfilling our duties, then it is time to tackle the problem of procrastination. If we put off dealing with procrastination, our accumulated neglect will fall in on us like an attic full of bees.
You may delay, but time will not.
