In I Chronicles, we start to read a repeat of what occurs in I Kings, but from a different perspective. David continues to be an amazing warrior for God. We read of David's prayer of worship in I Chronicles 29. David asks a purposeful question in V14, "But who am I, and who are my people that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have gien you only what comes from your hand."
We are blessed. We are all a very blessed people. I'm thankful for how God has blessed me and my family. But who am I? I'm but a fraile, fragile individual. I am nothing compared to the greatness of God. We give generously because God has given generously.
God is an awesome God. We aren't only talking about financial giving, but we talk of giving of the best of our talents, our time, our resources. We give back to him, because without him, we truly are nothing.
