A generosity promise

I’m blogging from my phone. Comcast says we have a working internet connection. Our experience is quite the opposite.

That being said, tonight’s post is going to be short.

This morning I read a huge promise from the Apostle Paul’s letter to the church at Corinth. It’s a promise/principle of generosity. Paul writes:
The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully…You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God. (2 Corinthians 9:6, 11 ESV)

I want to live a life marked by radical generosity. God promises to supply and provide so that his people have resources to use to bless others. And the upside down counterintuitive Kingdom thought lies in the first part: when we’re super generous, we will reap bountifully. I want my life to bear fruit for the Kingdom.

So I’m going to be generous.
