Are we Generous?

Proverbs: Chapter 11 verse 25

A generous man will prosper;

he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.

Thank you so much dear God that this verse is so true –

please allow me to refresh and help someone for you today. Amen.

The above is taken from the book: ‘Drink from the Cup’ here is the Link for you to see. It is a Daily Reading and can be purchased ready to start off the New Year. The book can be used each each year so will last for as long as you would like it to. (no need to throw away to purchase one each year) It would be a lovely gift also for a Christian friend……. maybe as a Christmas Gift or for yourself.

So how can we be generous to others? Well one thing is to maybe help someone today, or offer to take a friend out for the day or to treat them to a coffee for morning tea. There are lots of ways we can help someone. Even to help hang out the washing for them, take them a cooked meal or invite them to your home for a meal or afternoon tea. Not a good idea to offer money…… just help them in some way that they would appreciate your help. Perhaps take them to the shops if they are elderly or not very well or even to phone and ask how they are !….

As Christians we are to love our neighbours and these are ways that we can show the Love of The Lord Jesus. What about taking a small posy of flowers to someone living on their own. We don’t have to do something we are not comfortable with and not to do it expecting thanks. …….. So remember as we bless others we shall feel blessed by our Heavenly Father. We can pray and ask The Holy Spirit to help us choose what is best for us to do, not just today but any day that we see anyone who is in need.
