The generous make generous plans, and by generous deeds they stand. Isaiah 32:8
“The Hebrew word here can be translated as ‘noble,’ ‘generous,’ and ‘large-hearted.’ Noble-hearted people are like God. They are eager to look for ways to share with, bless, and lift up others…At the end of the year, I’m struck by [the] need for noble-hearted, all-round generosity…Of course this includes sacrificial giving, stewardship of your finances.”
