More blessed to give

261 0

Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop. You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. “For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.” And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭9:6-8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

A simple reading might tell us that this verse means that we need to give something (to God or to others) so that we will get something (from God). However, a reverse perspective is needed here. The fact is, God is saying we are greatly blessed by Him, so that we can give to others in turn. The blessing comes (from God), before the giving (to others).

May all things flow abundantly for you today in Jesus’ name! 😊🙏🏼❤️
