Giving

My son, John, was explaining giving to their church to his six-year-old son, Greyson.  Greyson said, “Oh yeah, they need the money to buy animals for the sacrifices.”  Evidently in Greyson’s Sunday school class, they hadn’t made it out of the Old Testament yet.  But, Greyson, the age of grace would soon come about.  Paul said in II Corinthians 8:9, “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.”  The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is so extravagant!  What a wonderful exchange: Our sins for Jesus’ righteousness!  Praise the Lord!
