Cheerful Giver‏

Yes your Majesty Honour and Glory to you forever and ever Amen

Forward with the Gospel

All is well With Jesus on the Wheel
Now this I say, he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. (2Cor 9:6)
______________


Too often I get stuck on the question of whether or not I give enough. But what's necessary is to get our heart before the Lord and be willing.
He made all things through his word
Jesus said, "Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure--pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return." (Luke 6:38)
What Jesus is NOT saying is that this is heaven's get rich scheme. He's saying that you cannot be more giving than your Father in heaven. Provide for your fellow man- your Father will provide for you.
I think of the love Christ so endless
Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. (2Cor 9:7) Let's pray.
Heavenly Father, thank you for giving us everything we need. Thank you for using our small offering to set our little faith in your great love. Amen.
Today's very great and precious promise
He gave all for our salvation
And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an abundance for every good deed (2Cor 9:8)


We have God's Word on it.
