God's on your team!

Think of all the things we give money to. We'll give money to our schools. We'll give money to Political Action Committees. We'll give money to charities. Each time we give, we are making a statement about the trustworthiness of the person we are giving money to. We are trusting that they money will get a better return on the investment- be it a soccer club, politician or a stock broker. (I get a little antsy giving money to someone who is called a "broke-er".) 

Malachi 3:10 as well as Proverbs 3:9 both tell us a principle- that giving to God is a great investment. We are taking a step of faith- knowing that God is trustworthy with our funds.  When we give to the Lord, we are inviting God onto our financial team. He is getting in the game. 

Think about it, God owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Ps. 50:10). Do you think that it will be too much for him to take care of you?

 Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
