2 Corinthians 8 & 9

In 2 Corinthians 8 & 9, Paul teaches us what gracious giving looks like. We are quick to pay when someone hands us a bill and pay our mortgages because we promised to pay them, but when it comes to reaching people and saving souls for eternity, people tend to shrink back. We are commissioned to reach souls and save lives for eternity. Our houses and collections will fade away, but eternity is forever. Nothing matters more than investing into the eternal Kingdom of God. He truly doesn't want to lose a soul. Through these chapters, we see what it means to give hysterically in worship to the Lord. Every good thing comes from God and He calls us to steward His resources well for His Kingdom. It involves stepping out in faith, trusting the Lord, and giving all we can through the power of His grace. It's not just money. We give our lives for the sake of the Gospel. We give our time, our resources, all we can for the sake of reaching others. Nothing matters more.
