Exodus 35:5
From what you have, take an offering for the Lord. Everyone who is willing is to bring to the Lord an offering of gold, silver and bronze;

God could have sent all the things they needed to build what he had commanded yet he chooses to fund his work through the gifts of willing people. God works this way to help us learn to be giving. Everyone was equipped with something they could give, they just had to be willing. Some could give gold while other just their talent both equally important. If God does everything for us how would we grow and become all he wants us to. God expects us to take steps of faith to have courage to be people that take action. It's amazing what God will accomplish through just one person stepping up with an idea of faith and reaching out to others.

The Isrealites, those who were willing, were asked to sacrifice tangible things; they were not forced or commanded. It is the same today, those who are willing, give their lives to God God does not force us to serve Him; only those that are willing. But the benefits of serving Him willingly so outweigh not serving Him that who could refuse?

Jeff D. from Lancaster, OH said:
Being "willing" is the key word that is emphasized in this reading. This chapter mentions being willing to use our gifts for God's purpose in not only our lives but for the greater good as well. Our will is strong, stubborn, and often concerned with it's own agenda rather than God's plan. Being willing to listen to God is the first step in serving Him according to His purpose for our lives and for all of humanity.
