   Sincerity in Tithing Counts   
      
   "I never thought I would be writing   
   a letter on how tithing works. Three   
   years ago I started tithing to see if I   
   would prosper the way the Rihle says.   
   For 6 months I tithed with whatever I   
   had, if I had anything at all after paying   
   the bills. Nothing happened. I was   
   on a meager income then and it didn't   
   change. Then I quit -- still nothing   
   happened. For 2 years I stayed on the   
   same meager salary. Then I started tithing   
   again, not for gain but just because   
   I thought it was the right thing to do.   
   This time the tithe was the first payment   
   out of my pay check. After over a   
   year of regular tithing and without a   
   lustful desire for gain from it, I finally   
   got a raise, and then another, and   
   a third one. Three raises and 2 promotions   
   in less than 4 months. I have the   
   same employer I had the first time,   
   but now God has recognized me and   
   has worked through my boss to prosper   
   me. It isn't just tithing -- it's sincerity   
   that counts."
