We give back to God to express our gratitude for the blessings in our lives and to acknowledge that everything we have ultimately comes from Him.
However, this belief can be difficult for children to grasp, as was the case with this young boy whose funny moment with the offering basket was caught on camera. He was about to learn a valuable lesson about proper church protocol.
As the offering basket made its way down the row, the boy dropped his dollar in with a sly smile but quickly decided to take it back. His observant grandma, however, swiftly slid it right out of his hand and back into the basket. It was a gentle reminder that once we give to God, it’s best to leave it in His hands.
This moment also reminds us of the importance of teaching children about worship and reverence for God. The boy’s family was setting an example, showing him that giving back to God is a meaningful part of their faith.
Additionally, it highlights the cherished bond between the young and the old in the church community. The fact that this boy had loving people around him, guiding and teaching him, is a beautiful testament to the power of community and fellowship.
