There are many things that can help us to trust God. Just

like learning how to swim requires us to build trust in our teacher little by

little, tithing helps us to learn how to trust God. Saint Paul knew this truth

when he reminded the Romans, “If you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord

and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”

(Romans 10.9) Since we have been saved from death, we have nothing to fear.

When we tithe to the Church, we learn that God is always looking out for us.

Nothing can hurt us without God’s permission. Even the demons were not allowed

to enter a herd of pigs (Matthew 8.31-32).
