A Blessed Life lived out!

I received this news from Megan Christensen about one of our Young Adults here at our church. I asked if I could share it with everyone because it’s a great reminder to us all that if we put God first, He will take care of all our needs. Enjoy reading the great testimony!

Pastor Dave,

I just wanted to share this with you. One of the After High girls came to me a couple of weeks ago upset over her finances. I asked her several questions one if which was, “do you tithe?” She said no and that she knows she should but her family has always had financial problems and although they are faithful to go to church, they have never really tithed either. So, I told her that she needs to start tithing first and foremost then we could talk about the other things but I told her I really want her to tithe and told her all the reasoning about being faithful to what God gives us and asks us etc. The next week she wasn’t able to come to church so she asked me if she got me her tithe check if I would give it for her. She brought it to me and I could tell it was a definite step of faith for her.

Fast forward…last week she was driving to her internship and needed gas. She had $15.03 in her account so she put $15 in her tank. All the way home she was praying and worried because she had no money or food to make it thru the week. That night, she went to help someone (she’s been giving voice lessons) and the girl she’s been helping gave her an envelope. In the envelope was a $25 gift card to Meijers and a $10 gift card to Subway. She couldn’t believe it. She called her mom and told her and it was a huge testimony to her parents as well a testimony to this young lady of God’s faithfulness and love.

Anyway, I just wanted to share this story with you. It’s one thing to hear it happening to people on a video, it’s a totally personal thing when it’s “one of my girls!!!”

Have a great day!

Who it was is not important for every one of us to know. What is important is to see how God is moving in the hearts of his people here at New Life Community Church!! Keep living a Blessed Life!
