Bible Question:
Giving tithes: I know it is a requirement and I'm perfectly happy to do what is required of God, but what if giving 10 percent of my check before taxes puts a strain on finances? Sometimes I don't give my full 10 percent because my finances are slim and I worry about not having enough to take care of all my needs. Then I feel very guility, like I'm cheating God. I do trust God and love Him. Does it mean that my faith isn't strong enough by not giving my full 10 percent and does that make me a sinner if I don't? Is it okay to give what I can afford? What should I do? vocab3802 |
