"ACCORDING TO THEIR ABILITY"

"According to their ability, they gave to the treasury for the work..."  (Ezra 2:69)

Notice the Biblical Principle throughout Holy Writ, "According to their ability."  Now the tithe is the exception.  "Ability," does not apply here.  The tenth is for us all, no matter our income.  The Bible tells us that Abraham and Jacob introduced the concept of the tithe.  "The Word of God," Jesus Christ, then, in effect, said, "I accept your commitment and will codify that."

We now have over $4000.00 for Ukrainian Relief.  The East Europe Winter is fast approaching, and I can tell you from personal experience that it can be brutal.  The pariah nation of Russia and the Devil Inspired nation of Iran are increasing their barbarity towards the Ukrainian People.  What, Church, is going to be our, "According to their ability?"

Father, in Jesus' Name, I pray especially for the Followers of You in Ukraine.  My trust is in You to increase our, "According to their ability."  Amen.

When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
Hebrews 12:2
