Prosperous Generosity

The one who blesses others  will be abundantly blessed; those who help others are helped. 
- Proverbs 11:25

God rewards generosity just as surely as He punishes sin. If we are generous, God blesses us in ways that we cannot fully understand. But if we allow ourselves to become closefisted and miserly, either with our possessions or with our love, we deprive ourselves of the spiritual abundance that would otherwise be ours.

Do you seek God's abundance and His peace? Then share the blessings that God has given you. Share your possessions, share your faith, share your testimony, and share your love. God expects no less, and He deserves no less. And neither, come to think of it, do your neighbors.

Prayer from the Blogger:
Heavenly Father,
Take all that You have given me and bless others through it. Keep my hands and my heart open to people in need, do that they would see You.
Amen

Digging Deeper:
Read the following passage -

Proverbs 11:25-31

New Century Version (NCV)

25 Whoever gives to others will get richer;
those who help others will themselves be helped.

26 People curse those who keep all the grain,
but they bless the one who is willing to sell it.
27 Whoever looks for good will find kindness,
but whoever looks for evil will find trouble.
28 Those who trust in riches will be ruined,
but a good person will be healthy like a green leaf.
29 Whoever brings trouble to his family
will be left with nothing but the wind.
A fool will be a servant to the wise.
30 A good person gives life to others;
the wise person teaches others how to live.
31 Good people will be rewarded on earth,
and the wicked and the sinners will be punished.

Challenge:
Seek God's abundance and His peace, then share the blessings that God gives you.
