How much should I give?

When it comes to our giving, we all ask ourselves the question, how much should I give?

Well! there are lots of answers to this question, and of course it depends on what you are giving to.
We live in a world that demands many things from us on a daily basis, our time, money, ability etc. We have learned from the Word of God that it is more blessed to give than it is to receive.
We should have also learned that the measure used in giving is many times the measure used in receiving.
I have lived by and taught a principle for many years when it comes to giving, be sure to spend some time thinking about what I am going to say because it has proven to be a key factor in the blessings that God pours out to those that will be obedient when it come to giving of our increase; WE ONLY GET TO KEEP WHAT WE GIVE AWAY!
You see, though we don't like to think about it and find it hard to admit, this old flesh of ours wants to know, if I give, what do I get in return. That of course is the wrong attitude.
We've all heard it said, you can't out give God! Giving needs to be an exercise that you do on a daily basis in order to get the most benefit.
Whether it's in your money, or your time that you spend, or the kindness that you show to others, be sure to give liberally and watch as it comes back to you many times over.
May God Richly Bless You!

2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

...and as I have always said; But he will take money from a grouch! ;-)
Praying for you today!
Evangelist: Frank Mc Gee ~
