I had one of those experiences in the past few months. I’ve had them before but this past one was the hardest I’ve ever had. I knew what I needed to do but I needed the help and encouragement of a few righteous men to strengthen me to do what I needed to do. And it paid off in many ways. Forst it paid off spiritually. The overall tone of the congregation changed for the good when I stood up to the challenger. In addition, it has paid off financially. There’s something about removing a powerplaying giver that allows others to step up to the plate and do things they never did before. I thank God for the challenge and the lesson!
