One of the biggest hurdles I think for Christians is tithing. Especially now. When you're making plenty of money it is easy to tithe. When you aren't it becomes ever so much harder.

I live on disability. So, 10% is a huge portion of my budget. I literally have 200.00 to last me for the entire month after all my bills are paid. So I struggled with this and struggled with this. I am giving with my heart and trust in the Lord that increase will come with my willing to obey. But it is hard.

Probably the hardest thing I have had to do in a long time. My mom says God will understand if I don't tithe this month. Not true. If I say OK God I need to keep back from you this month but I will start again next month, I KNOW that next month will be even harder. And so on and so on. I pray mightly that the Lord will know my heart. That he knows that I am struggling with this and that I do truly give to Him because I want to. Out of obedience, AND out of Love for Him. Out of Faith in Him to make every thing turn out right. And that He will increase my life. How, I do not know or even pretend to know. Only that He will increase my life.

I could use your support and prayers in helping me to continue to Trust in Him who makes all things possible. For I am still fighting the flesh and the world of worry. Sometimes it is hard to tell my brain to shut up, be still and list to the Lord.

So pray for me.

God Bless.
