Most times, we just receive to joy of obedience to God. Sometimes it can get difficult to give. But for some reasons I can't explain, hoarding away material possessions has never made me experience true joy. Only giving has. And this strengthens any relationship. At the end of the day, its not the things, money or work around me. It's the people around me. Whether we're clergys or missionaries, genuine friendship, spiritual accountability and gentle encouragement can't replace the pressing needs of finance more.
