Day 3
What is a tithe?
Read: Mark 12:41-44
God designed the tithe to make us more like Christ. In the story of the widow’s offering, we see the hearts of two different types of people. Many of the rich people gave large sums of money. Then we have a poor widow that gave all the money she had. The point of this story is not how much the people gave, but their hearts behind it. Think about how much faith it took for the widow to give the last of her money. Do you think she probably had to trust that God was going to continue to provide for her? Do you think that made her a little more like Jesus?
Pray that God would continue to make your heart more like His. Ask Him to show you how He wants you to handle your finances.
