My dad, J. R. Fields, served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. After the war he moved his family to Corpus Christi, Texas. In the early 1950’s my parents attended revival services at DelMar college auditorium. Dad had $6.00 and the Lord spoke to him to give all of it in the offering. ($6.00 in the early ‘50’s represented lots of money—all he had for food for his family.) The next morning, Monday, dad and mom received a $500 check from the Veteran’s Administration. They said they owed this to him for the days of leave he didn’t take when serving in the military. A few months later the Veteran’s Administration sent him another $500 which dad used to buy his first car.
Truly, we can rely on Proverbs 3:9-10: “Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.”
