When Was the Last Time You Gave to VOM?

Earlier this week I was writing a column for my newsletter and I wrote about asking.  I was trying to convey that for Christians to be active Christians one of the things we need to do is ask God for things and also ask others for help or information or whatever it is we need.   I then shared a story about how God answered my prayer and awarded me a grand prize at an event I was invited to.  And not because I asked to win the prize, but because I had asked God to "pick me" to do something great for Him.

Which brings me to the title of this post - When Was the Last Time You Gave to VOM?  Seriously...when was it?  I'm wondering because I've found in the few years I've worked with people and especially many ministries people often say they pray, but I rarely hear people say they actually donated also. In fact, I was talking to a friend of mine who has another persecution ministry and they told me that usually what happens is that people who pray are the ones who give.

I know for me, the Lord has really convicted me about blessing the ministries that bless me.  And I highly recommend you give to your local church first, and then to the ministries that you know and love.  Personally,  I hope VOM is one of them, because I can assure you the blessings you give, are directly used to minister to our family who is suffering.  They need bibles, clothes, and many other things that we have and they don't.  Would you give something today to help out?  You will be blessed because you gave, and those who will benefit will also be blessed.  To me, that's the best investment.

You can donate online through the VOM bookstore.  Check it out, I think you may even find something you like.
