Money - Are we giving to our Church as we should?

VERSE:

2 Chronicles 24:5

5 He called together the priests and Levites and said to them, “Go to the towns of Judah and collect the money due annually from all Israel, to repair the temple of your God. Do it now.” But the Levites did not act at once.

LESSON:

Money - Are we giving to our Church as we should?

This verse is from the Old Testament where it describes the Temple in Jerusalem being in great need of repair. Joash was the King, and called all of the people to remember their obligation to yearly donations to support and maintain the church. Some of the church members (The Levites) did not heed his call, and made no donations as required. What are we doing with our money? Are we adequately supporting the church in it's missions? Can we do more, by denying ourselves something that we do not really need. (I know that I could). Give something...give more if you can. Give at least what you should...and give it cheerfully. You are helping the work of the LORD!
