We give because we have been given so much.
Giving financially is an opportunity to respond to God’s generosity to us, namely in sending His Son to die on the cross for our sins. Giving is not an obligation, it’s a privilege for all those who follow Jesus.
God designed us to give to experience the fullness of all He has to offer. Giving is a way God shapes our hearts and aligns ours with His. It’s a way for us to be a part of something far bigger and beyond ourselves. It’s why when we give, we often experience a greater joy than any sacrifice we’ve made.
