39-Dollar Faith 7-29

  Hello. My morning routine was altered this morning when I turned the TV on, and Mike Murdock appeared on my screen. I, usually, immediately change the channel when I see he is speaking. If you are not familiar with Pastor Murdock, he is invited to speak at churches around the world for his message on the power of the offering seed. Confession time: Yesterday, a man in line ahead of me at the gas store paid for the man ahead of him and they parted with a God bless you. With my heart warmed, I intended to pay for his stuff in return, until he said, “and 40 dollars gas”. I have since repented and asked forgiveness for missing my opportunity to witness my faith and to receive my greater reward from heaven. Did my faith have a 39-dollar maximum? The lingering question is, “Why did that relatively small amount, 40 dollars, make such a big difference to me?” Overall, the experience may benefit me more, in the long run, than if I had paid for that man’s stuff. I was reminded that without planting the seeds in the ground first, there can be no harvest later.
