" …The righteous give generously" (Psalm 37:21, NIV).
Did you know that when you give to others in
need, the Bible says it’s like giving directly to God Himself? When you step out
and bless other people, you are honoring and blessing the Lord. The scripture
tells us to give our best, to give generously. In other words, stretch yourself.
Go out of your way. It may be uncomfortable to walk over and pay for someone’s
gas, but that’s being generous.
I encourage you today, look for ways to give generously and meet the needs of
others. Remember, people have many different types of needs. There may be
someone who needs some encouragement. Give generously when you give that
encouragement. There may be someone in your life that just needs a friend; they
need some quality time. Give generously of your time and pour into that person.
As you give generously to others, God will multiply those seeds in your own life
in return!
Heavenly Father, I come to You today giving all that I have to You. Open my eyes to the needs around me and show me how to be a blessing to others. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
