PHILIPPIANS (PART 7) - 'GRATITUDE FOR SACRIFICIAL GIVING'
At the end of his letter Paul shows gratitude for the gift the Philippians had sent with Epaphroditus. He calls their financial support "an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God" (Phil. 4:18). Sacrificial giving is an important component of the Christian life. To give sacrificially shows we trust the Lord, desire the good of others, and desire to see the work of the ministry prosper. We also are assured that in doing so we have "fruit that abounds to our account" and that "all our needs will be met" (Phil. 4:17, 19). Wonderful promises!
