Tithing teaches us to control our desires for things of the world

"Tithing also teaches us to control our desires and passions for the things of this world. Payment of tithing encourages us to be honest in our dealings with our fellowmen. We learn to trust that what we have been given, through the blessings of the Lord and our own diligent efforts, is sufficient for our needs."

- Elder Robert D. Hales, Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, "Tithing: A Test of Faith with Eternal Blessings," Ensign, Nov 2002, p. 27
