The Connection Between Love and Generosity By Dr. Bob Snyder

And This is Love – Generosity

The book of Proverbs says that prosperity is found in generosity,

A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed. (Proverbs 11:25 NIV)

Jesus said that receiving is best experienced through giving.

Give and it will be given unto you. A good measure pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the same measure you use, it will be measured to you. ( Luke 6:38, NIV)

I am reminded not only of the importance of generosity, but also of being measured by the measuring stick I use!

As God measures my love for Him and for others, what does He find? A heart of generosity or a heart of stinginess?

Just as eternal life does not dwell in a murderer (1 John 3:15), so Godly love does not dwell in a miser (1 John 3:17).

Join me in pursuing a heart of generosity this week.

Sharing the journey with you.
