I've never posted here before and it's about time.
There are at least three things that the Bible says belong to God. "All souls are mine". Even if folks don't believe it now, when they stand before Him in judgment, they will. "The tithe is the Lord's" I'm one of those who believes He takes it (doctor bills, car repair etc.) if we don't give it. "Vengeance is mine" when we're wronged and start plotting to get "even", we're trying to take something that belongs to God. God is able to make you walk in victory. When Israel came out of Egypt, the Bible says the dogs didn't even bark at them.
Something to think about.

Speaking of tithes. Last Sunday the youth groups joined the adult congregation for the kick-off of Vacation Bible School. So of course, my five year old daughter is sitting with my wife and I when they start taking up the offering. As the basket comes by, my wife lays in a check and starts to pass it on, when my daughter grabs the basket and says "wait I have money in my purse." She had like $2 bills and some change. So, she digs around for a minute and pulls out her dollar bills and drops them in the basket. I start to pass the basket and she says "wait" and keeps digging. At this point, we are officially holding up the collection. So, I grab the basket and say, "Sweetie, that's OK. We need to pass it down. But, she grabs it and vigorously says, "WAIT! I have a quarter!" She was digging for every last penny she had. It almost brought me to tears with pride.

Wouldn't it be great if we could all give so happily and completely, with no concerns for future wants/needs.
