Testimony : Tithe!
Pam and Robert Williams
This is our testimony for a couple of recent incidents where God showed up strong.
As I sat down one Wednesday a couple of weeks ago to get my monies for FICWFM together I found I was going to have a bit less than anticipated. I went on as normal and Pastor shared some things about tithing at Bible Study that night. I am a tither and have been since I got the full understanding as taught by Pastor.
The next morning while paying my bills online, I got a call from the Police Department Personnel Section. They told me they had my check ready for me. I asked what check? They told me I could pick up my retroactive pay check. In June 06' our officers contract ended. So when I retired in Jul 07' I had been working for 1 year w/o a contract. The retroactive check covered that year w/o the raise. When I went down and picked up the check to my surprise it was $7200. God was as always on time. I thanked him as usual and tithed and gave my offering right away.
This past Saturday, Robert got as letter from the retirement board. They reevaluated his pay for the past three years since he retired. They found and accounting error in his favor. His
retirement pay is going to be increased $500 a month. They like my retroactive pay will be sending him a check in excess of $25,000. When we read the letter I said to him that's tithes. He said I know. He too now understands the power of God when you stay faithful and tithe and give offerings.
When he first started coming to Berith and saw the checks I wrote for our tithes he had me
decrease the amount, so we were no longer tithing. I understood the consequences but being new in Christ he didn't. We had problem after problem monetarily for several months until he told me he got it and we then both agreed to tithe.
God is truth, and as we decrease and let God in us increase we will see the fruit. God is truly
amazing.
