Generous Living

"Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously." 2 Corinthians 9:6

Little seed sown will result in a small harvest. Much seed will bring a large harvest. If we are generous with what God has given us we will enjoy much spiritual fruit. If we are reluctant to give we will see little spiritual fruit.

God's is generous. The Father generously gives us blessing upon blessing the chief of which is salvation through His Son. The Son generously gave His life for us. The Spirit generously pours His gifts and power into our life. If we share the life of God it will inevitably manifest itself in generous living.

We can never surpass God in our generosity and therefore we will never lack the ability to be generous. "And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work" (2 Corinthians 9:8).

Father, thank You for Your immeasurable generosity toward me. Manifest Your generosity through my life by enabling me to be generous with the resources, time, and gifts You have entrusted me.

I'm praying for you.
Pastor Mark
