My love language is quality time. I love spending time with my friends and family. My heart is full after good times together, making memories, and life conversations. I am not necessarily someone who loves GIFTS (another of the five love languages). We often give in the same way we like to receive love. Gift-giving is not one of my favorite ways to display my love.
However, we have weekly opportunities to give to Christ. Many years ago, wise men gave Jesus precious, costly gifts.
If you struggle with giving to the Church, you are not alone. I am not perfect by any means, and I struggle with this issue. It is a matter of trust. I am blessed in life, and I want my life to be a blessing to other people. I know that Christ's Kingdom is expanding through the work of His Church. The Church is the BODY of Christ. We are the people who are putting God's plan into ACTION.
My challenge: give a costly gift to Christ. It doesn't matter the size of the gift. God looks at your heart.
