LEFTOVERS ARE SUCH HUMBLE THINGS, WE WOULD NOT SERVE TO A GUEST,AND YET WE SERVE THEM TO OUR LORD, WHO DESERVES THE VERY BEST. WE GIVE TO HIM LEFTOVER TIME, STRAY MINUTES HERE AND THERE. LEFTOVER CASH WE GIVE TO HIM, SUCH FEW COINS AS WE CAN SPARE.

WE GIVE OUR YOUTH UNTO THE WORLD, TO HATRED, LUST AND STRIFE; THEN IN DECLINING YEARS WE GIVE, TO HIM THE REMNANT OF OUR LIFE.

From Gene Edwards’ Sermon: Why Giving is Teamwork!!
