Joyful Giving

In Ex 35:20-29 God stirred the hearts of the children of Israel to give, and if someone had something that God needed we see that they willingly gave it. In fact they were so willing that it says

 
 

And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing. 7 For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much. Ex 36:6-7

 
 

They were so willing and joyful that they gave to much. O that God would stir our hearts to give so much that we will have to be told to stop giving!
