THE TITHING SYSTEM.

By M. T. Cole

MRS. M. T. COLE.

The subject of tithing as presented by Brother Bourdeau, meets a hearty response in my heart. The Lord loves a cheerful giver, and above all, the loving giver of tithes; for obedience is better than sacrifice. A little box in one corner of my bureau has received my tithe for several years, and I am indeed glad to remember it every time I receive money for labor among my neighbors,

for the fruits of the field, or for books and papers. I know the Lord has blessed me in basket and store, and in His loving, sweet Spirit, a thousandfold. My orange trees did not shed their fruit, and returns of sales have been greater than usual. I fully believe that this is in direct fulfillment of the promise. All honor to Him who guides by His eye, and gives us wisdom to get what we need. Dear brethren and sisters, let us be faithful in tithes and offerings.
