Hi Undergrace, Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount let our giving be in secret and our Father in Heaven will reward us, this is how I view my giving and it is not only by cash that we can give of course. I love to give but I do not appreciate someone telling me how much I should give.
Giving to the Needy: Matthew6:1-4
1) “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2) “So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 3) But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4) so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Remember our parents taught us, "it is better to give than receive", is that in the bible...I think not but I will check my concordance....

If I was on any OLD Post qouting my favorite Bible Verse, here is what it looks like when THIS NEW PROGRAM GETS A HOLD OF IT:
Titus 2:13 (HCSB)
