"But who am I... that I should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand...O Lord our God, as for all this abundance that we have provided for building you a temple for your Holy Name, it comes from your hand, and all of it belongs to you."
(29: 14-16)
(29: 14-16)
Lord help us to remember as King David did- that what we have & what we give are yours. Just as we would be foolish to borrow a friends car and then boastfully return it to them saying "Well you'll be glad to know I decided to bring the car back to you"- may we not think that what you have given with your own hand & blessed us with is ours for the keeping. Thank you that we can give as generously as we can. We are a blessed people indeed. "Yours O Lord is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven & earth is yours." (1 Chron. 2911)
