Today is Thursday, May 24, 2018. Hi, my name is Adam Burton and you are listening to the Daily Devo, a short devotional designed to help you apply God's Word to your life. The content comes from the Gospel Project. Take a few moments and read 2 Corinthians 8 verses 1-15 and 9 verses 6-15.
Those who have not experienced the Gospel often struggle to understand sacrificial giving. The world's value is to take care of yourself first and then if you have anything left over be generous. This generosity only comes from the surplus of a person's surplus after savings, school costs, car payments, travel and so forth have been made. Giving is a foreign concept before adding the idea of doing so cheerfully.
When we give this sacrificially and cheerfully, we have the opportunity to present the Gospel and powerful ways to those around us. Think about this. Will we receive a financial return on whatever we give financially? Why or why not?
How should the promise that we will always have what we need impact our level of generosity to others? If you are a need a prayer, please get in touch with me. I would love to pray for you. You can connect with me on social media or shoot me an email at adambertton.net.
