Offerings
Topic: People/Family stories
God's blessing...... It often comes through His people.

Did I mention that I haven't cooked a meal in a month?

A MONTH!

Yet my family and I have eaten home-cooked meals almost every night. October 3rd I had surgery, coinciding with pastor appreciation month in October. Our church family provided meals four times a week for the entire month! Besides the blessing of meals, we also got to know several people a lot better, making a real connection with them as they entered our home, bringing their offerings.

Oh, they weren't offerings to US....they were offerings to God. They brought Him lasagne, chicken and rice, chicken pot pies, tatter-tot casserole, chicken enchiladas extraordinare, steak, chicken, burgers, pizza, soup, along with all kinds of cakes, pies and desserts. Each of them blessed God with their offering of help and physical sustinence to another believer. A cup of water, so to speak....

Cool, isn't it?

Now go out and present your offerings before Him....

The angel answered, "Your prayers and gifts to the poor
have come up as a memorial offering before God."
Acts 10:4
