Exodus 35 – Listen to Your Heart

“Take from among you a contribution to the Lord; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as the Lord’s contribution”

This may be the first instance of “passing the plate” in church history.

Seriously, there is a repeated theme throughout this chapter of people giving as their hearts were moved. Too often we ignore what God is speaking to our hearts and fail to give what God is asking.

I suspect that all of our hearts are tuned differently and respond to different needs. We need to listen to our hearts and follow the leading God plants in our hearts. When we ignore the leading of the Holy Spirit another person’s need may go unmet.
