A Spirit of Graceful Giving



A Spirit of Graceful Giving

As we are full throttle in this season of celebrating God's Divine Gift to us, let us embrace and exude the true spirit of giving.

Let us give freely with a sincere, cheerful and clean heart...

Let us give with grace, forgiveness and unconditional love...no strings attached for the one who receives...

Let us give with mercy, compassion and forgiveness...

Let us give in a manner that truly reflects The Holy Spirit at work within us and in a way that is Holy and pleasing unto God...

May we all have a grateful and generous heart...a graceful spirit of giving in this season as we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior...

And may The Lord God fill and replenish our cups so that we overflow with fruits to gracefully give, in His Holy and Righteous Name.

"The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully[a] will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." (2 Corinthians 9:6-7)

"I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive." (Acts 20:35)

"For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of His government and peace
There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this." (Isaiah 9:6-7)
