GENEROSITY
Generosity...what a simple, splendid word. And how special it is to know that generosity is a gift to us from the first
and ultimate giver, God. From the very beginning He has unfolded His sovereign plan of creation, love, grace, and
salvation as an expression of His abundant generosity. He invites each one of us to participate in this with Him as He
continues to move through history. Inside the soul of every Christian is a God-inspired desire for the generous life, for
a life tailored around His example of selflessness and sacrifice. We are all on a spiritual journey, and we are all on a
giving journey. Both are filled with growth and movement. We encounter times of expansion. We transition away from
the old to the new. We move forward in our generosity, learning to give more and give more sacrificially.
