“Generosity isn’t just for the rich. It’s not about those with excess giving to those who have little. Generosity is about displaying the character and heart of God.

I’m reminded of the story in the Gospel of Luke of the widow’s offering. A poor widow gave two small coins while the rich gave larger gifts. And yet Christ said she put in more than all the others because the rich were giving out of their wealth while the widow put in all that she had.

What does generosity look like in your life? Do you only give out of your wealth, or are you willing to cheerfully give all that you have in order to display the heart of God?”
