Good morning everyone,
Yesterday we heard an inspiring, encouraging, and hope filled message by Pastor Mona called "God's Generosity". Please read this very fitting devo from In Touch Ministries that goes along so well.
"2 Corinthians 9:6-12
As a child, I lived with my mother in a single-room home. She made just enough money for food, clothing, and rent. Most Saturdays another boy came to the door and asked, “Do y’all have anything to eat?” I’d look in the icebox and see perhaps a piece of fruit, a few eggs, a little bacon, and not much else. But my mother always found some food for that boy.
Generosity is an attitude of sharing gladly whatever we might have, regardless of wealth. In today’s passage, we see liberality is an attribute of God (2 Corinthians 9:8-10). And our Father wants His children to develop a generous spirit as well.
A charitable approach to our money and material goods begins by giving ourselves to God. When we accept that He owns everything, we can hold our small share with an open hand instead of calculating what little amount we might squeeze out for charity. Christians who give sacrificially trust the Lord to supply enough to cover both their gifts and their own needs.
Only through giving do we learn that God cannot be outgiven. So begin today to cultivate a generous spirit by trusting Him to provide the resources."
May we always remember that we can trust our God to always take care of us when we take care of His Kingdom and give generously in ways we know He's calling us to.
Have a blessed day!
