No Hands But Ours
This church budget of ours is not what it may appear to be -- It’s not figures and operational costs and assessments; rather, it is the religion of Jesus wrapped up in one bundle.
It’s the church worshipping God in the beauty of holiness.
It’s hundreds of little ones learning to sing, “Jesus loves me, this I know . . .”
It’s a family in distress finding in the fellowship of the church of Jesus Christ those resources of the spirit by which their bereavements are transcended.
It’s the expression of the teaching, helping, instructing ministry of Christ in this generation.
It’s dependent needy saints being fed and clothed and nurtured in the way of Christ.
It’s a testimony of the love we have for God to the people who live near us.
It’s the testimony of lost people who are tired of living apart from the Lord, learning the way of salvation.
It isn’t just a budget -- It is the Lord extending his hands in his blessing through this church. Our hands are his hands. Please remember this as you give purposefully on the Lord’s Day. - Author unknown
