What has the Holy Spirit said to your heart?

Has the Holy Spirit said anything to you about:

1) Tony Evan's teaching "Connecting Giving and Receiving"? Evans reported that Christians give on the average only 2 1/2 % of their income to the Lord. What did he mean by "You must plant a seed in order to meet a need?"

2) Leadership 101? Where are you in "the four phases of development" and what can you do to increase your effectiveness as a leader? Did you get the teaching on "The Law of the Lid?" What is your lid and what can you do to raise it?
