Whenever I think of the most loving and giving person I know, I can’t help but think of God himself. What a big, huge, amazing giver He is! Because He is Love, His whole nature is to give. Giving and loving definitely go hand in hand. As we look at generosity this week, I want you to consider ways that you can give of yourself to others. Generosity involves money, but it is much more than just money. Generosity is giving your attention, your time, your abilities, your compassion, or your money freely to those around you.
Generosity is a demonstration of love. Money is a big part of your life. Your job is all about making money to provide for your needs.
Here are some questions for you:
How do you earn money? Is it doing something that you love?
How do you spend the money that you do make? Have you decided to be a tither? As a kids is when I started tithing, and it was a habit I developed that I have continued throughout my life.
Can you be more generous? We all can! Find ways to be a giver all the time. You can start simple by giving love, kindness, and courtesy to your family.
Can you help others with your generosity? It helps others, but it helps you too! That’s the best part of generosity. It blesses you more than anybody! So determine to be like God, and be a great, big, amazing giver!
