1 Thessalonians 5:12-13
“Dear brothers and sisters, make sure that you show your deep appreciation for those who cherish you and diligently work as ministers among you. For they are your leaders who care for you, teach you, and stand before the Lord on your behalf. They value you with great love. Because of their service to you, let peace reign among yourselves.”

Be at Peace
When was the last time you gave a love offering over and above your tithe to your pastor or any teacher/minister/helper who is laboring and God is using to help you in your life?
It is no accident that Paul mentions this and be at peace in the same breath so to speak. He was encouraging them to sow seeds of love and encouragement rather than complaining and discord.
Have you ever been around a genuine generous person? They are happy and at peace. It is rather difficult to have a bad attitude around them isn’t it?
Sowing or giving requires us to let go. It requires faith in God. True peace only comes from complete trust!
Sow into someone today. Share the love and give generously!
God is responsible for the growing and He will provide the increase.
