Sharing our resources
Read Acts 4:32-37
Written by Rose Robinson
This passage describes a very successful ‘cooperative’. Verse 34 tells us, ‘There were no needy people among them.’
?What helps it to work?
?What were the believers sharing?
?What were the consequences of their behaviour?
The group is united by a common vision and their deep commitment to one another.
?What is the source of income here?
?What is the agreement between the members of the group?
In our group, our agreement and situation will be different from the one here. What is important is that everyone who is part of the group clearly knows how the group is to function and keeps to the conditions we have agreed upon.

हाम्रा श्रोतहरू बाँड्ने
प्रेरित ४:३२-३७ पढ्नुहोस्।
यो खण्डले एउटा सफल सहकार्यको व्याख्या गर्छ।पद ३४ ले भन्छ; ‘त्यहाँ उनीहरूको बीचमा खाँचोमा परेको मानिस कोही थिएन। ‘
(?) यसलाई सफल केले बनाउन सहायता गर्छ ?
(?) विश्वासीहरूले के बाँड्दै थिए ?
(?) उनीहरूको व्यवहारका परिणामहरू के के थिए ?
समूह एउटै उद्देश्यमा एक थिए र एक अर्काप्रति गहिरो समर्पण थियो।
(?) यहाँ आय श्रोत के छ ?
(?) समूहका सदस्यहरूबीच के सहमति छ ?
हाम्रो समूहमा, हाम्रो सहमति र परिस्थिति यहाँको भन्दा फरक हुनेछ।महत्त्वपूर्ण कुरा के हो भने, समूहका हरेक सदस्यले स्पष्ट थाहा पाउनुपर्छ कि समूहले कसरी काम गर्छ र हामीले सहमति जनाएका शर्तहरूमा समूह रहिरहन्छ।
