The "return" on your gifts to others in need is in the form of joy..... it's that inner glow that you get when you truly give of yourself to others.... and, while we're on the subject, that inner smile that you feel.... That is God saying, "thank you."
Many churches have turned themselves into "Prosper Colleges," with their center focus on money and power. You are told that God wants you to be prosperous, even wealthy..... all you have to do is give money to the church and you will receive ten times more in m9ney back. God is not an investment house like Merril Lynch or Morgan Stanley. He's not a bank, and He's not the Lotto. Some churches are selling i
the dream of wealth and success through God..... with the church being the beneficiary of your cash. Pardon me, but getting "rich" is not the point. "It is easier for a rich man to pass through the eye of a needle, than to enter Heaven." Jesus was spot on with that thought. Do not become a slave to Mamon...... Do not send your hard earned money into the pockets of deceivers. Give only to those truly worthy of giving...... THEN you will receive His smile of appreciation. That is the greatest RETURN on earth.
