Tithing

Well all is have to say is that I am a firm believer in paying tithing. The other day I was thinking about all the bills we have to pay and how we still need to pay off last summers trip out west. I was feeling a little discouraged. That day I went out with the missionaries to some ladies house and she was saying how her electricity had been turned off. They asked how much she needed and she said 80 dollars. I thought oh I can help her with some of that money. I love how when times are tough and then the Lord shows you how someone else is having a harder time. After the discussion I went and got some money out of savings and took it to her. That Sunday I paid our tithing for the month and I was still a little worried, But I want you all to know That the Lord looks out for us if we pay our tithing. Today has been kind of a crummy day, so I went and got the mail and I got two things that made my day. One was a thank you note from my mother. Sometimes as a wife and mother we feel neglected sometimes, so that was nice thanks mom. And the other thing was a check for 122.00 from the energy company. I have no idea why, but I believe it was because we pay our tithing. And it was exactly half of what we paid on sunday for tithing.. I feel my day is looking a little better....
