I appreciate so much the way Pastor Joey Bonifacio unpacks a single Bible verse to the congregation. I am grateful that VCF Fort started saving live streams.
This is my first attempt to copy Pastor Joey's notes from the big screen and some of what he said at the pulpit (verbatim) and mix it with what God's revealing to me.
This topic is about Generosity.
The mindset that God broke for me is that Generosity is not about the money that I have, skills, availability, genuine desire to help. I never connect generosity to faith. In this message, God showed me that generosity is only BY FAITH.
:)
PS. When before I always felt big inside and happy that I am fulfilling my obligations and I always felt confident that I am pleasing God for giving my whole tithe to His church and doing something for Him, at the end of this Sunday service, I remember feeling puny and worthless when I placed my tithe in the tithe bag. I was immediately emptied of the "good" things I've done and was filled with the good things God did for me.
