JESUS, MONEY & STUFF
I want us to note this: When people came to Jesus, Jesus never, never, gave them money. He never gave them stuff. And yet, what do we ask for? Stuff. How ridiculous. So then, isn’t it obvious? If Jesus never gave anyone money… or stuff, while he was walking the earth in His

No matter what problem we face,
No matter how daring the mission-
He provides His marvelous grace.
