Why is it that when I was making almost no money, I found it easy to tithe. Because $50 a month doesn't seem like that much money? How come now that I'm making more money I find it so difficult to tithe. It's still ten percent. It's still a dime of every dollar.
Someone I know used to say that this is the only area in the Bible where God says TEST ME and see what I do. I need to do some research and confirm that because, WOW, if that's true!
I have been really convicted about this lately. Starting tomorrow I'm tithing out of every paycheck AND following the 10-10-80 principle of tithe 10%, save 10%, and live off the remaining 80%. This is my version of a contract with myself (yes, this blog is equal to a Bible days oath! Haha) so feel free to keep me accountable and ask how it's going!

Awesome. God is so good...I have been faithfully tithing for years now, and I have NEVER gone without. I have also seen God do miracles. It's worth testing Him in! It's His money anyway, He just loans it to us. :)
