Below is a conversaon between two Deacons that may renew your thinking on giving to God.
Deacon Phil had a serious queson for Deacon Sam. “When you say that I should give to God first,
does that mean I should give to the church before I pay my installment?” Deacon Sam responded,
“Deacon Phil, the way I see it is that the money we give to God should be ours to give.”
“It’s my money alright, I worked hard to get it,” protested Deacon Phil. “Let’s agree that you

money before you earned it,” replied Deacon Sam. “Yes, that’s true, I promised to pay a small
installment,” Deacon Phil agreed. “Okay, then each month that installment belongs to your
creditor; it’s not yours to give. Your gi to the church must come from your remaining income,”
concluded Deacon Sam.
“Hey, that’s not good; that way, the church always gets leovers,” argued Deacon Phil. “No! You
and I must manage our money so we can give to God first, from money which is ours to give.
We must manage the normal events of our lives, because we are all subject to abnormal events
beyond our control,” Deacon Sam advised. “You’re saying that I should manage well enough to pay
both God and the devil?” summarized Deacon Phil.
Deacon Sam pointed out, “Yes! When you do that, you can control who gets money first!”
