We were challenged, asked
from the lectern, quiet in the sanctuary
if we were faithful with all our gifts
not just our money, our fruits
Asking if we tithed our time to God,
if we gave a tenth of our days
A challenge to ponder,
in this season of faith
to give more to the creator
from all he has given me
