Our Gifts to the Saints

Scripture 2 Corinthians 8:4 imploring us with much urgency that we would receive the gift and the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.

Observation: We as Christians are the saints described in the bible. The gifts that were given was to help fellow Christians who made up the church. Paul went through the cities and the people gave freely so that their fellow Christians would not be in need. Giving our money to others is one of the greatest acts of faith we can do since it is so hard for us to let go.

Application: God has provided for all of my needs and then some. I need to be able to part with some of my money to help others. Currently I give to an organization called Hidden Treasures that help stop child trafficking and the San Diego Rescue mission that help those in need in the area. I must still be able to freely give to those I see as I walk along and give them a hand up and be the light God has called me to be.

Prayer Dear Lord thank you for taking care of me and my family. Show me how I can use what You have already given me to help others in need. I’m not here to only take care of my needs but the needs of others as well.
