Pledging weekend!
Sunday, November 05, 2006
this week's svc was AWESOME! hee..
this week is the pledging weekend.. to be honest.. i don't have a definate amount in mind. i roughly have a figure. but i haven't really have an amount from God..
every year i'll pray for an amount to give.. and God always come thru again and again.
even before svc, i really don't have an amount in my heart that i felt that is from the Lord...
during the svc, the presence of God is strong.. esp after the preaching of the word.
pastor talked about giving the precious, the last time i gave my precious.. i could still remember very clearly... that time i really cried in the svc when i hold onto my envalope. to me.. that time is really alot.. that time i'm still studying. i could remember that time.. i hold onto the envalope so tight.. so so tight... some part of my heart really dont wanna let it go.. some part of my heart thinks that why i am so foolish that i gave so much away.
but one thing cleared all my doubts in my heart.. i know that God is bigger than anything else. God is bigger in my situation, God is bigger than the amount of money that i clung onto so tight in that envalope. although i don't see what happens in the future, the Lord sees and the Lord provides..
during the svc.. i was reminded about that day... i really wanna give to God my best.. i wanna give as much as possible.. this half a year must really save up... really wanna chip in alot to build God a great house!!
when i write the pledge form on sat.. i felt that i should put an amount that is more than what i initially planned... although the difference is not alot per month, it really makes alot of difference. like what pastor said, there is a difference between giving your surplus money and giving your livelihood.. this time it really hurts when i write down e figures.. i was thinking.. God.. this time you really got to come thru for me.. not sure whether i can have enough to survive after giving...
my God is BIG.. so strong so mightly.. my God is good.. He's so good to me..
but i really wanna give above and beyond what i pledged.. hee.. think it'll be very challenging. don't wanna save up for myself this time round. i know the Lord will provide for me in future. :D
thinking back.. since the first arise and build that i participated. every single time my financial situation got better after i gave.. i believe that as i continue to give.. one day.. my reaping will overtake my sowing.. and i could have more than enough.. that i could live a life of abundance.. i could live a life that God really desire me to live in this life time..
looking forward to give God an offering that will touch His heart.
