On Child Donation:
A Contribution to Fulfilling the Work of the Gospel
Millions of people in the world today are still far from the life-giving message of the gospel. It is challenging to reach these places, where the time and resources needed to spread the message of God’s love are limited. To work in these places, we need to first aim to reach the poor with the gospel message, and then to support the lives of believers financially, keeping them grounded in the word of God.
In this regard, it is important for us to receive the contribution of children to fulfill the work of the gospel. The donation of a child is a very important and progressive step, which can bring great changes in the work of spreading the gospel in the future. Although the donation made by a child may be small, its importance lies in its spirit and purpose. The donation of a child is often seen as an invaluable contribution to believers.
In this article, we will explore in depth how to understand the subject of child donation from a biblical perspective, what its significance is, and how it can be achieved effectively.
1. The importance of children’s contributions to evangelism
A child’s donation is often small, but its significance in God’s eyes is enormous. When a child gives to spread the gospel, it shows a sense of joy and dedication to the Kingdom of God. These small acts guide us to contribute to a greater purpose.
In Matthew 19:14 Jesus said:
“But Jesus said, ‘Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.'”
There is a purity and a sense of trust in the giving of children that reveals the true purpose of God’s work. Jesus showed the importance of children in the kingdom of God, and their pure attitude inspires our work.
2. Children and charity: What kind of mindset is needed?
When children donate, it is because of a pure and innocent attitude. They do not have any selfish motives in their hearts. The donations given by children not only provide you with financial support, but also a spiritual and psychological energy, which makes you more enthusiastic in the work of the gospel.
The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 9:7:
“Each one should give just as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
The joyful giving of children is a sacred act in the sight of God. For this reason, a child’s giving should be considered of great importance.
3. Educating children to understand the importance of giving
It is a responsibility to teach children the importance of giving. We need to convey to them that giving is not just about money, it is a form of love and support that can make a difference in the lives of others. This will inspire them to contribute in the future and help them get involved in spreading the gospel.
We can tell children about the life of the Lord Jesus, who did not keep his wealth or anything small, but changed people’s lives by showing love and compassion to others. This also encourages children to do great things with their small donations.
4. Donation instills a sense of trust and dedication in children.
Children’s donations reveal their faith and sense of surrender. When they donate, they seem ready to play a small role in God’s work. This brings them closer to their spiritual life and increases their sense of faith in God. Such actions lay the foundation for a child’s strong faith in the future.
In Luke 21:1-4, we see that a poor woman who gave only two small coins was of great value in God’s sight. This sentiment can encourage children that even the smallest donation they make is important for the power and kingdom of God.
5. Ways to use children and donations to spread the gospel
1. Organize a low-cost donation drive: You can involve children in a low-cost donation drive, where they can donate warm clothes, books, toys, or their favorite items. This helps children understand the importance of their donation and its impact.
2. Promote the importance of your child’s contribution through social media: In today’s digital age, children are able to contribute on online platforms as well. You can promote the importance of their donation through videos, stories, or posts.
3. Organize cultural programs: Cultural programs can be organized to collect donations from children, in which they can present their art, dance, music and the proceeds of such programs can be used for the propagation of the gospel.
6. Creating a community through donations
Children’s donations help strengthen a community. When a child donates, it inspires others to contribute as well. This creates a sense of community, which makes evangelism more effective. You can organize a donation event at the church or community level for this, which brings new enthusiasm and progress to the evangelism work.
conclusion
A child’s donation is not just a financial contribution, it is a sign of love, faith and joy. When children make their small contribution, they make a big contribution to the work of the gospel. It brings new energy and inspiration to our holy work, and helps us all come together to spread the Kingdom of God on earth.
At a time like this, we all need to be inspired to use every resource and effort we have to spread the gospel, and give children the opportunity to be involved in this work. This can make a big difference in the future, and help God’s work reach the entire earth.
