As servants of God, we are assured that He supplies our needs. In 1 Kings 17, we read how God took care of Elijah by sending him food by ravens and providing water from a brook despite drought. When the brook ran dry, He sent Elijah to the widow of Zarephath. By meeting the prophet’s needs, the widow put God first, and her flour and oil were sure.
In an economic climate of low interest rates, stock market volatility and budget deficits, we are all searching for wise investment opportunities. Have you considered investing in God’s work and letting
Him supply your needs?
There are many ways you
can invest in God’s work,
but I want to highlight just
one: an AFM charitable
gift annuity (CGA). A CGA
with AFM provides an
opportunity for you to
contribute to the work of
reaching the unreached while guaranteeing yourself an income for the rest of your life. The process is simple: you give a one-time donation of $10,000 or more to set up the CGA, and in return, you’ll receive a fixed annuity payment from AFM based on the size of the gift and your age. Plan for your future while also helping missionaries share the Good News!
No matter how you choose to invest, please consider following the widow’s example to invest in God’s work.
