When we understand God's generosity it inspires us to be generous to others.
Talking Points:
- God is extremely generous with his resources. Psalm 104:10-18 describes God’s abundant provision for his creation, including humanity. He waters the earth and gives food to the animals – and blesses men and women as well.
- God’s most generous act was to give us his Son as our Savior. Jesus came down from his glorious, heavenly existence to become a human being, to live in our squalid, evil planet as one of us. Romans 8:31-32
- When we are generous, our lives reflect the heart of God. God uses our generosity to express his own generosity, as he channels his resources through us to bless others.
