A Life of Generosity

God is a most generous giver!

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,
that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.   JOHN 3:16

Let it sink in and challenge you as it has in me!

What if we really lived with a level of generosity so radical
that all people could see would be love and humility?
What if we operated with no worry over having enough?

This kind of generosity comes from a heart that
boldly trusts the creator
and
generates great love
without being concerned about self gain.

The "world" that Jesus referred to was not deserving of this great love!  In fact, it was quite undeserving, yet the Lord Jesus poured out his love, his blood, on the cross for the sin of all humanity.


What if the people of God learned to live with unconditional generosity,where the question "what's in it for me?" never came up?


I'm trying to imagine it...
