“Generosity’s Measure”

Our God is SO GENEROUS:
          - I get to live like a “river” not a reservoir!
          - I get to experience the release of extraordinary Joy as I do river-life!
          - I get to start by “returning the first of me and mine” to Him and His Kingdom. 
          - I get to trust Him, focusing on His Promises as I step out in faith to give generously.

“Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others.” Luke 21

Jesus-styled generosity is measured not by the size of the gift but the size of the sacrifice!
It’s a heart thing!  He noticed what was left more than what was given!

“In severe trial, their overflowing joy and extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity. 2 Cor. 8

 Sacrifice – Human view?

 Sacrifice – Jesus view?

 What does this mean for me?      “…in view of God’s mercy, offer your bodies as a living sacrifice” Rom 12
