Devotion 7/5, Rejoice in God’s Abundance
Blessed are those who have regard for the weak; the Lord delivers them in times of trouble. Psalm 41:1
We find happiness not when we have everything in our hands but when we share with people in need, giving from our abundance as the Lord has given to us.
The generous person sows happily and reaps the blessed fruit of God’s ongoing favor. God himself multiplies our sowing so that we can continue to give generously. God provides for us and gives us health and strength to do more by spreading his love to others. When we open our hearts, hands, and pockets to share from all that God has given us, we find joy and happiness in giving freely as the Lord gives, without strings attached.
Lord God, help us to open our hearts to care about others and to share from the abundance you have given us. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
