No matter what you’re feeling during this season, you can find rest and reassurance in the gift of Immanuel, “God with us.”

As Giving Tuesday approaches, let’s prepare our hearts by taking a look at what the Bible says about generosity.
In 2 Corinthians, Paul wrote to the church in Corinth, urging them to help Christians suffering in Jerusalem by giving generously.
Here are 3 things we can learn from Paul about what it looks like to live a generous life.
When life happens or you face financial hardship, it’s not always easy to give with a cheerful heart.
So, how can we give in the midst of our own struggles?
We must remember that everything we have comes from God. We simply get to steward it.
When we shift our mindset from “my resources” to “God’s resources,” it changes the way we live.
We are able to live with an open hand, trusting God with what He’s given us and blessing others with a cheerful heart.
Are you trusting God with everything He’s given you?
When we choose to live generously, we are surrendering our desires, admitting that we have nothing and are fully reliant on God’s provision.
You don’t need to have a lot to give. You just have to be faithful with what God has given you.
Giving is an act of surrender and complete faith that God will provide.
Generosity is more than a gift to others. It’s a reflection of your heart.
God doesn’t want us to live generously because we have to, but because it is our deepest desire to help others and glorify Him.
When we give out of gratitude, it is a reflection of the transformation we’ve experienced through the Gospel.
Jesus is the perfect example of what generosity looks like.
