October 27, 2024 - GOD WANTS MORE THAN YOUR "STUFF"
Description
Malachi: Draw Near to Me - Malachi 1.6-14
Jobey McGinty
God's desire is for our hearts, not just our stuff. He's not interested in our leftovers or second-best offerings. Instead, He wants us to give Him our all, cheerfully and generously. Far too often we cling to "our" time, money, possessions, comfort, convenience as though it is ours, and not given to us by our Father. And when He asks for us to give it back to him we say, "no, that's mine!" forgetting that it all comes from Him. He's asking us to be good stewards of His blessings and to offer them back to Him in worship and service. Let's respond to God's call by opening our hands and our hearts. As we give generously, we'll experience the joy of true discipleship and the abundant life that God promises.
