- When we give to the Lord, our hearts will grow closer to Him. Mathew 6:21
- We are investing in our eternal account, treasures that we will enjoy later on. Matthew 6:20
- When we give to the Lord, He gives us more resources - for our own needs and for others. 2 Corinthians 9:6
It feels good when we obey and give Him our "first fruits".
It gives us an opportunity to help others and to feel blessed through giving.
It helps churches and Christian ministries grow and reach more people.
When we give we prove that we trust God.
We reflect God's generous love.
We are actively participating in God's will for a person or ministry.
Can you think of any other benefits of giving?

good encouraging post Shari.Thank you
I think it's also important to realize our attitude when we give as well. If your writing your check for your tithe as you are complaining about your lack of money or something similar, then you probably shouldn't even write the check.
I have such a hard time with this. Especially being a joyful giver. I don't know why.

Great thoughts! I love giving and have learned the more I give, the more I love it---especially when no one knows! ;)
