The Generosity of God

 

What does generosity look like to you? It can mean sharing gifts and resources. It can mean taking time to comfort and encourage someone.

Sometimes we may feel like we don’t have much to give, but by God’s grace, we do have something wonderful we can share.

When we receive Jesus Christ into our life, He fills us generously with His own love. Then He urges us to love others as He has loved us. 

God teaches us what true love is. We learn to become slower to get angry and more willing to care for others. We get to shower others with God’s amazing love. What a wonderful gift it is to experience this kind of transformation! 

These words from first Timothy chapter 1 express what I am feeling. “Oh, how generous and gracious our Lord was! He filled me with the faith and love that come from Christ Jesus.”


“When we receive Jesus Christ into our life, He fills us generously with His own love. Then He urges us to love others as He has loved us.” 


Psalm 103:8

“The LORD is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.”
