Tithe your time (and your money)

Tithe.  A tenth.  First fruits.  Giving the best pieces to God.

This is how tithing has been described in the Bible.  Let's look back to the days of Cain and Abel.  Abel gave the first portion, the best portion, as a sacrifice to God.  Cain just gave some, not necessarily the first and/or the best.  Hence the reason God chose Abel as a loyal follower.

Everyone seems to be busy nowadays.  Which, honestly, isn't true at all.  Everyone has always been busy and devote their time toward their desired tasks.  If someone wanted to sit down each night and watch hour after hour of mindless news media, or consume hour after hour of social media, that is their choice.

Try a different mindset.  Tithe your time as well as your money.  Give the best parts to God.

Because it is all His anyway.  Your time is God's time.  Your money is God's money.  We're God's stewards of our time and money.  No one seems to talk about tithing our time.  Give it a try.  Devote time each and every day to Him.  Set it in stone.

Make it time for His Word.
