Today, we’re talking about generosity and how to live a generous life. It feels like a lot of people have really forgotten the joys of giving and focus on what they should be getting. And that’s no way to live! There are so many ways to be generous. Not just financially, you can share time and knowledge. When you’re generous with something you’re not thinking about what you’re going to get out of it. Generosity is kindness in action.
Helping people is one of the things that you don’t really regret. Even if it’s not always well received, you shouldn’t feel bad for volunteering your time, energy, or money to help others. We want to ask our listeners what it felt like to receive something you didn’t expect. Now times that by 5 and that’s how you feel when you donate to someone else.
In the Bible, it mentions a cheerful giver. If you’re giving cheerfully then you’re focused on the right reasons for helping people. We challenge everyone to be generous with your words too. Kindness can be 100% free if you’re spreading it with your words.
