Generosity
If you desire to become a more generous person, don’t wait for your income to change. Change your heart. (John C. Maxwell, leadership speaker and author)
We are constantly besieged with appeals for money—help the homeless, the poor, the abused, veterans and suffering animals. The requests are endless and most often legitimate. Real, deep needs do exist. How do we respond? With a good wish but “No”—or “I may have to sacrifice, but I am going to help.”
Blessed are those who are generous (Proverbs 22:9).
Since you excel in so many ways . . . I want you to excel also in this gracious act of giving (2 Corinthians 8:7).
