It’s the last Sunday of our month of recognition and it’s our day of gathering, it’s our day of worship and adoration, it’s our day dedicated to the Lord.
What have we done to express our gratitude?
What will we say to God at this time?
When we look back, we cannot help giving thanks to God for his wonders.
We cannot fail to recognize the hand of God upon us.
God took us from the dust and ushered us into the highest spheres.
Tell us, how can such a great God do us so much good and we don’t give him back this honor and this love?
Some wonder how to do it?
One of the solutions,
These are the sacrificial offerings.
We can’t say we love if we don’t give.
When love is there, we always want to be grateful, we want the other not to lack anything, we do crazy things so that our neighbor is always happy.
We are constantly busy, the world develops individualism but as children of God, we must make sacrifices, we must always be ready to help, to reach out to the needy, to encourage.
A woman in the Bible was in a church and when the time came to give, everyone surely stood up proudly, proudly and confidently with their offering.
But we also have to know that when the moment to give the offering comes, many are panicked because they don’t have one, their problems eat away at them and they don’t always know how to do it.
To continue the story, while we are in the calculations, a woman may be a widow to give a few coins but that’s all she gave and that’s all she had.
She wanted to honor the Lord, she did not stop at the gaze of others, it was her everything and she wanted to show her gratitude to the Lord.
Maybe after that she had to walk home, maybe she didn’t even have enough to eat with her family but she decided to please the Lord first.
Because of her gesture, Jesus himself appreciated and declared that she gave more than everyone else.
Why ?
Her heart was pure, her thought was true, she had a spirit of humility and gratitude.
May the Lord give us the grace to understand that the sacrificial offering is not to have access and distribute it, it is to be a needy sometimes, but to feed another is to leave his zone of comfort means surpassing oneself so that our neighbor has a smile.
Jonah, 2:10 – For me, I will offer you sacrifices with a cry of thanksgiving, I will fulfill the vows that I have made: Salvation is from the LORD.
Give unto the Lord sacrificial offerings.
If something doesn’t cost us, don’t give it to God, he does wonders for us, he gives us what our eyes have not yet seen and what our ears have not yet heard.
The Lord hears us every day, let us redeem our vows because we are filled with gratitude to the one who loves us and delivered us from the hand of our enemies.
Let’s bless him with our gifts,
Let us glorify him with our riches,
Let’s raise it with our prosperity.
You are everything to us, Jesus.
Hello
Have a good day
