God’s Word for Today - 15 May 2024
Acts 20:35 KJV — I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
Reflection on God’s Word for Today - 15 May 2024
Giving is a unique attribute of Jehovah. No one can ever outgive God. He loves humans so much and doesn’t want any of them to perish, so he sacrificed His Son Jesus Christ to save human beings from eternal condemnation to hell. And those who are created in His image and after His likeness are called to emulate the giving behaviour. God endowed you with time, talents, gifts and resources so you can bless others who may be in need. You are not to hoard them but to use them generously in serving people, so they can glorify Jehovah. You will discover the joy of giving and you will be glad you have succumbed to the Spirit of Giving and giving graciously to honour God. If you are struggling with being a giver, sit back and reflect, Christ will never ask you to do what is not beneficial to you, now and in eternity. Commit to giving cheerfully.
Pray: O Lord my God, develop in me the desire to be a cheerful giver and to be a faithful steward to You. #Mok
