Striving At Tithing... Poem by Denis Martindale

Some say that they would never tithe! Some say that they are skint!
Some say that they would not survive! As if to give a hint...
Some say that they have bills to pay! Some say that they are poor!
I say that they take time to pray... so God can give them more!

While good to tithe when you are rich... God sees no sacrifice...
No struggle shown, setback or hitch... at first sight, that seems nice...
Yet God has seen the human heart... and knows what we should give,
So rich or poor, God helps us start... to tithe each year we live!

To some, this proves a noble thing... to some, just one more tax...
To some, each gift will serve our King... to some, just facing facts...
When I was poor... I looked ahead... to see a future time...
When poor no more, but rich instead... and thought that quite sublime!

And now I tithe for lost years, too... to catch up now and then...
I seek to pay tithes overdue... for I am born again!
So money comes... and money goes... God's blessings overflow...
God knows my tithing grows and grows... when I say yes... not no!
