been teaching mini mosaic at church for about a year now. i have the cutest 4-year olds ever! heehee although i’ve been moved up to Kindergarten, i’m so excited to learn what my former students have been up to these past months. last night i made cake pops with a few girls from the high school i work at, and will be distributing them today to the kiddies. thank goodness that today’s lesson is on giving…. in particular, giving generously. love it.
this month’s lesson is soOOoo good, i thought i’d share this little tidbit this morning….
So many times we think that our ability to be generous is connected to our riches. We are afraid to give because we don’t know if we have enough, and we think generosity is for those who have more than we do to give. But the cool thing about generosity is that we’re not generous because we are rich, we are rich because we are generous. When we choose to give generously to others, we are blessed with everything that really matters in life.
This month, let’s think about how:
(1) We can show generosity because of what God has done.
(2) God instills generosity in us as we respond to His goodness.
(3) God uses generosity in us to influence our families, friends, and neighbors.
Remember: A virtue is something God does in us to change the world around us.
