When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place.

indescribable gift
The point is this: the one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the one who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

all is the Lord’s!
The earth is the LORD’S and all that is in it, the world, and those who live in it; for he has founded it on the seas, and established it on the rivers. Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD?
