Do you ever sit down and look back all the people who have been generous to you? Those people hold a special place in your heart, right? Do you ever go out of your way to be generous to strangers,… or do you only do it for your loved ones?
What goes on in your mind when you see someone begging for money?
Imagine you are going through a financial crisis and you are positive that if God doesn't intervene, you will go under. You will lose your business, car, home, and other things that you value. One day, as you are at the fuel station, someone begs you give them money for food. You have a $5 bill in your wallet, a $10 bill, and a $20 bill.
Which one do you give considering you are going through a financial crisis?
Sometimes when we pray for something, God sends us tests to see if we are ready to receive His blessings. It is said, "The true character of a man is revealed when in a crisis." You may find that God delays answering the prayer until you learn the lesson. When you pass the test, God works on your request in ways that you can hardly comprehend. You find things working out for your good.
