Cheerfully Give

How do you give? Do you give reluctantly or easily? Do you give compulsively or thoughtfully? Do you give begrudgingly or cheerfully?

God desires for us to give from the heart. We are to give freely and cheerfully.

The Apostle Paul wrote the church in Corinth, saying, “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Corinthians 9:7, ESV).

As followers of Jesus, we are called to give from our heart. God loves to give and God loves a cheerful giver.

May we cheerfully give from our heart as an outpouring of our love and gratitude for all God has given us.

A Prayer for Commerce and Industry: “O Lord Jesus Christ, in your earthly life you shared our toil and hallowed our labor: Guide those who maintain the commerce and industries of this land, and give to all who labor pride in their work, a just reward, and joy both in supplying need and in serving you; who with the Father and the Holy Spirit live and reign, one God, world without end. Amen.” (#46., Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
