the poor give more
Today in the One Year Bible, we read from 2 Corinthians 8:1-15. Paul says that the church was very poor and being tested by trials, but that it overflowed with rich generosity.
On the one hand you (most likely) live in the wealthiest country in the world (if you're reading this). On the other hand, you probably don't feel like you're well off. Most likely you work for your money and don't have a ton of money saved. But right there, where you are, you can "overflow with rich generosity." Remember the woman who gave one coin and Jesus said she gave more than anyone else?
He's calling you to overflow with rich generosity. How can you do that? Just ask Him to give you opportunities... and then get ready to overflow.
God, thanks for allowing us the privilege to give.
