THIS IS WHAT HAPPEned WHEN WE GAVE
Here’s a story of a man named Barwah, who experienced a profound transformation by giving to God’s cause. Barwah had always been a hardworking businessman. He focused on his success, investing his time and energy into growing his company. Though he was financially well off, something was missing. He knew God had blessed him with much, but he didn’t feel fulfilled.
One Sunday, his pastor spoke about a ministry that provided education, food, and spiritual guidance to children in impoverished communities. The pastor emphasized how these children, with the help of this ministry, were able to meet their God-given potential. Some became doctors, teachers, or pastors themselves, going on to impact their communities for Christ. This touched Barwah deeply.
That night, Barwah prayed about how he could give back to God’s kingdom. He realized that God had been calling him to use his resources for a higher purpose. Moved by this realization, Barwah decided to make a substantial donation to the ministry. He felt led to sponsor several children, covering their school fees, food, and even basic medical needs.
Over time, Barwah received letters and pictures from the children he sponsored. He watched as they grew spiritually and academically. One of the boys he supported became the first in his family to graduate high school and was inspired to become a pastor. Another child, a girl, went on to study medicine, determined to return to her village and offer healthcare.
Barwah’s life changed as well. He no longer found fulfillment in business alone. His joy now came from knowing he was playing a part in helping these children fulfill their God-given potential. He even traveled to visit the community he had been supporting, and the gratitude and love he received were overwhelming.
Through his giving, Barwah felt a deeper connection with God and understood the true meaning of stewardship. Not only did his donations help transform lives, but they also brought him a sense of purpose, knowing that he was participating in God’s mission to empower others. In the end, Barwah realized that when he gave to God’s cause, God multiplied those blessings in both his life and in the lives of those he helped.
Friends, if God is speaking to you to donating, please don’t hesitate because you can make a lasting impact by providing less fortunate children with essential school supplies and access to clean drinking water, transforming their lives for the better. May God bless you!
