Generosity

Generosity is not just giving others (and God) my (God’s) money, but also time, talents, knowledge; basically everything I’ve been given and am thankful for, I need to be willing to give away if God so calls.

Take, for instance, the hymn “All to Jesus…I Surrender All.” What if we substituted “10 percent to Jesus I surrender, 10 percent to Him I freely give”? How ridiculous. His grace and payment for my sins require all of me!
