Disappointed?

Being a generous person is a mark of genuine love in the likeness of Jesus

Paul's point is that we must keep the bottom of our giving funnel open, and God will keep pouring into the top.

Is it well with your soul?

God's New Covenant Economy:
"Stewardship is an act of worship that proceeds from a changed heart-not a command or law. The Bible gives us freedom, which compels us to rely on the Holy Spirit to provide discernment and wisdom. But we have to hear and pay attention, remembering that riches, pleasures, and comforts choke out God's voice."

We are generous because Jesus has been so generous to us!

"For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich." 2 Corinthians 8:9
