Are you
a giver? How do you treat the things God has given you? Do you let them go
reluctantly, dutifully, or gratefully? Do you consider the opportunity to give
a privilege and honor, or is it a drudgery to you? How you view giving is a
good indicator of what is in your heart.
No
matter what the Lord has given to you, you are but a steward of it. The Lord
has put His confidence in you to use your gift wisely and generously for His
honor and glory. He believes in your capability of being a good steward.
Whether you have little or much, the truth is the same. You are to give
generously to the Lord with a willing heart. What you give can be a lot of
different things: money, time, energy, talents, wisdom, encouragements,
hospitality, etc. You have something the Lord has given to you to use for His
glory. He has entrusted you with the responsibility of nurturing and growing your
gift so that you can give it generously back to Him to be used for His service.
What
gift(s) has the Lord given to you? What are you doing with it? Are you hoarding
it or generously giving it for the glory of Christ? Generous giving can only come
from a loving heart and hoarding comes from a selfish heart. Is your heart
right with God? If so, let your life show it by being a generous giver.
