I am convinced that the devil has caused the subject of giving to stir up resistance and resentment among God's people because he knows there are few ways of spiritual enrichment like the exercise of faithful stewardship.
What God expects us to attempt, He also enables us to achieve.
Take that which God has given you and share it.
The first requisite of stewardship is to give ourselves to God. Thus, a logical recognition of God's absolute ownership should follow.
