DO WHAT HE SAYS




If I have to choose the best time in life, then I will choose junior high school years. I met a lot of friends and experienced a lot of fun. But when I think it over, how can I be so relaxed during that years? And the answer is that I didn’t have to think about what would I eat, what would I wear, how could I earn some money? In conclusion, I only have to enjoy my schooling time, my studying time, my playing time.

I started to realize real life when I was in senior high school. I knew that I could no longer ask my parents to give me money for the rest of my life, because I was the one who should give to them now, or at least start to fulfill my own needs with my own hands. Considering the situation, I decided to work.

Without knowing what to do, God gave me an opportunity to give lesson to some elementary students in a child project. I was so happy because It was my first job and because I finally could do something to help my parents.

I was curious with my first salary. I knew it won’t be much, I was just a senior high school student and to be trusted that much was more than enough for me at that time. But I was really curious with what would I do with that first salary. I had some plans in my head, but God told me a different plan through His word. He asked me to give the first fruit offering.

First fruit offering? But I had been waiting for the job and I was going to use the money for my future?

It was difficult to give all of the money away to God, but I decided to do the right thing. When I received the salary, I brought it all to church as an offering, first fruit offering. I knew that I could not be able to taste the benefit of my whole month working, but I am glad that I did it. After that month, I see that God is working in my life until now. He brings me to the top, step by step. He blesses my job and my family. He fulfills His promise not to leave His people when they do what He says. Truly I say to you that our God is an awesome God.
