At the center of our own heart we are one with Him. In us He is the great giver, in others He is the gracious recipient. Let all our dealings be as for the Lord, and in His name and Spirit.
We should give, because it is Godlike to give, and with all our giving, we cannot equal the gifts of our Father, who more than His children knows how to give good gifts. How little we know Him that we should fear the withholding of some good! How much we need to stretch our spiritual capacity to hold even a small fraction of all that He has prepared for us! Could we with spiritually illumined vision behold the wondrous things out of His law that He has prepared for those who love Him, how briefly should we cling to the tinseled baubles that we clutch in fearful hands!
God's Promises
Listen to Him: "Be not afraid." "Prove me now herewith." "All these things shall be added." "It is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." Promissory notes are these, signed and sealed by the hand of God, who above all His creation is to be trusted!
