Day 1

Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.  2 Corinthians 9:10-11

The big day has arrived. A challenge to GIVE. An opportunity to be CHANGED.

We invite you to blog about your experience on this journey. Each Monday, a linky will be posted for bloggers to share their stories. We need your stories. They inspire, they encourage, and they touch lives.

Is there a particular cause or charity that you are burdened with? Share it.

Does giving seem impossible yet you accept the challenge anyway? Tell us.

Write and give for an audience of ONE. Then sit back and watch what He does.

Are you ready?

    When I first liked the 30 day giving challenge, I didn’t know what it really was about. I am already being challenged with coming up with ways to give. Money and time are both stretched pretty thin here but I have been blessed and am determined to share some of that blessing. So thank you for your encouragement to give back.

    This is such a great idea, especially for this time of year. I was looking for motivation for my family in this holiday season and this will provide it very nicely!

    20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. – Ephesians 3:20-21

    Can not wait to see what He does…

    I’m so excited about this challenge, however I had tons of great ideas, and I woke up this morning and couldn’t think of any! :( I’m sure I will get through this though!

    I am so excited to get started…It feels good to be happy about giving! I am deeply burdened for the organization PAWSitive Effects. This group builds fences for dog who live their lives chained. I am proud to be a part of this organization and I want to help in any way I can. God created these precious babies ,but I’m sure he didn’t intend for them to live their lives as such. We are attending a meeting tonight with the county committee and tethering will be on the agenda…Please join me in prayer!
