I enjoyed reading this article: Ranking the Spiritual Gifts
#8. That's me! I smiled when I read, "They tithe with joy..." Lol! This past Sunday, while sitting up in the balcony at mass, the basket was being passed around below, but no one came up to the balcony to collect the tithe.
The time was almost over for collecting, and I thought they had skipped upstairs. I had my check ready to give, but I saw them heading for the altar! I almost cried! I wanted to tithe! I was going to run down to the main aisle to give them my money, but then I saw others walking downstairs. I followed, and by the foot of the stairs, there was this girl patiently waiting for anyone up in the balcony to come with their tithe....God bless her! I felt joy in my heart and without even thinking about it, thanked her for allowing me to give my 10%.
I'm also a #3, but tend not to say anything at all.
