When we signed up for Christ Community’s Capital Program Faith to Sight (F2S), we took a detailed look at our budget and prayed. We felt strongly led to give generously to lower the debt and increase CCC’s ability to “outgrow the church” and spread God’s love and glory to the community. There was a safe number would could commit
to that would barely be possible given our current income level and budget. To meet this goal, we would have cut back one discretionary
expenditures that would be essentially trimming fat. After some prayer, we felt led to double that number which essentially made it impossible meet our goal without additional income revenue. Within 2 months of committing, God provided additional income via a long-term consulting opportunity that will enable us to exceed our commitment.
This not the first time God has provided for us in such a manner after our committing to his kingdom financially beyond our resources. The first time that we did this we were led to do so by Proverbs.
“Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce; then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will be bursting with wine.” (Proverbs 3:9-10)
