It's so hard to fight the "me first" attitude of Western culture. How do you handle your finances? Do you spend it all on yourself or do you share? I'm not talking about Tithes (that's a given and if you don't give it, you're robbing God... ooo boy, that may start an argument).
I'm talking about investment in the Kingdom. That can be financial, but it's not only money. What about those four hours of TV we watch a night, on average? Could we take some of that time and spend it on Kingdom work? How about those skills we use every day at work? Could they be useful in our local churches? What about those talents and that gifting we have? Are we using it for God?
One of the first things we teach our kids is the concept of "Sharing". "Johnny, share your M&Ms with your sister." "Sarah, don't hog the couch. Scoot over and make room for Liz." Let's not lose that concept as we grow older and, hopefully, wiser in Christ.
