Sowing and Reaping 2 - Win Win Situations - 2 Corinthians 9:6-15

A win, win situation is one where everybody is a winner. When you run a race, or in a tournament, there's only one winner, it's not a win win. But if your boss were to say to you, "from now on, you can do your job from home", it's a win win. The boss somehow feels that the job can still be done, and you can do it all day in your pyjamas. When we choose to be generous, it's a win win. Parents lean into their kids' pricey education, or will help with costly weddings, or do many things at considerable expense to themselves. But they don't consider it a loss, right? They see it as a win, and so do the kids. Or, think of the many people who come to Canada and forego training or advantage that they had in their home country, working atconsiderable disadvantage, all because they want to give their kids a better future. They don't see it as a loss. It's a win win. We'll spend one more Sunday on the theme of generosity, from 2 Corinthians 9. Extra reading: 1 Kings 17:8-16 Preacher: Bill Dyck
