Calculative.

Okay im not good at maths but i find it so easy for me to be calculative. And for my benefit. But this generous February i want to give willingly what my heart feels it should without holding back because im afraid i would lack. Sometimes when i get to generous to the least, i get told off for " spoiling the market " or , the " its stupid to give to them, they are only where they are because they are lazy or will be lazy"

"If we had more faith and love, we should waste less on ourselves, and sow more in hope of a plentiful increase. Can a man lose by doing that with which God is pleased? He is able to make all grace abound towards us, and to abound in us; to give a large increase of spiritual and of temporal good things. He can make us to have enough in all things; and to be content with what we have. God gives not only enough for ourselves, but that also wherewith we may supply the wants of others, and this should be as seed to be sown. 

We must show the reality of our subjection to the gospel, by works of charity. This will be for the credit of our profession, and to the praise and glory of God. Let us endeavour to copy the example of Christ, being unwearied in doing good, and deeming it more blessed to give than to receive. Blessed be God for the unspeakable gift of his grace, whereby he enables and inclines some of his people to bestow upon others, and others to be grateful for it; and blessed be his glorious name to all eternity, for Jesus Christ, that inestimable gift of his love, through whom this and every other good thing, pertaining to life and godliness, are freely given unto us, beyond all expression, measure, or bounds." - Matthew Henry

To always remember that when i give, and give at all. There is more gained somehow from it than holding back or receiving. That i must know that even though the act of giving sometimes defy logic to being able to build one self, perhaps giving builds more than we think, and even so for our inner being.

I am somewhat convinced that even though i amy not have much now, i must still give. I remember a preacher in church saying that if we don't start giving when we have little, what makes us think we will start giving when we have more.

anyway im off!, haha so tired today. need to get some stuff done :)

Have a good day!x
