Grace for your spirit 5-16-16

Grace for your spirit
The people are bringing much more than enough for the construction work which the Lord commanded us to perform. Exodus 36:5

Moses was receiving contributions of good and services to build the ark of the covenant in the wilderness.  Just days before this, these people had been using their resources to build a golden calf as their new god. What a great turn around.  This response is a true sign of genuine repentance.  Before they thought everything belonged to them.  Now, they realized everything belonged to God.  That was the difference.  Have you every experienced your church leaders begging the congregation to stop giving and working because they had enough?   Me neither. Perhaps we all need a big turn around too.
