The word “tithe” literally means tenth or 10%. Tithing, or giving ten percent of your income, isn’t merely giving something to God. It’s giving back what was his to begin with. All that we have, or hope to have, comes from him. The Bible says that tithing is a reminder that God is the supplier of everything. It teaches us to always put God first in our lives.

The Creator and Redeemer of our humanity has given us a path toward recovery and resilience.
“Primal Drive for Life” ~ John Eldredge
A …“barren wilderness—a land of deserts and pits, a land of drought and death, where no one lives or even travels…” Jeremiah 2:6 NLT
This is more than a moment in Jewish history.
Our journey from…
bondage to freedom
barrenness to the promised land
Our journey of salvation from… the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of God.
It is a story about the Primal Drive for Life—where will we take our thirst?
“The heavens are shocked at such a thing and shrink back in horror and dismay,” says the LORD. “For my people have done two evil things: They have abandoned me—the fountain of living water. And they have dug for themselves cracked cisterns that can hold no water at all!”
Jeremiah 2:12–13 NLT
The assurance of abundance.
Dallas Willard
God yearns to bring us the assurance of abundance.
“Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!”
Isaiah 49:15
Healing from trauma involves naming what the trauma was, and what its effects upon us have been.
You can’t heal trauma without grieving it.
Reading and memorizing scripture builds mental resilience because it is a living, breathing text in which you encounter God, and through which you get perspective on the world.
How good would it be for your mental health to be reminded each day that…Jesus is Lord of all, “running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule”.
Ephesians 1:20–21 - THE MESSAGE
Read Isaiah 40 for five days in a row and watch what it does for your soul.
Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, right and pure, lovely and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise …
Philippians 4:8
Think about something…
-beautiful
-reminds you of the goodness of God
-nature
-makes you smile
Start with God, center your life on him, and work outward from there.
Our spirituality moves from something that is part of our life to the epicenter of our life—from which all other things flow, and to which all other plans yield.
His resilience will not fail us.
“God made us: invented us as a man invents an engine. A car is made to run on petrol, and it would not run properly on anything else. Now God designed the human machine to run on Himself. He Himself is the fuel our spirits were designed to burn, or the food our spirits were designed to feed on. ~ C.S. Lewis
Ephesians 3:14-19
For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being,so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
