Give generously and generous gifts will be given back to you, shaken down to make room for more. Abundant gifts will pour out upon you with such an overflowing measure that it will run over the top! The measurement of your generosity becomes the measurement of your return.”
Luke 6:38 (TPT)
Take, take, take. One of my two main love languages is Acts of Service. I feel loved when I’m being waited on hand and foot. I think it stems from being the baby of the family and the only girl. Add in depression and chronic pain and it is a recipe to become self-absorbed. But God is generous and expects the same from me. Abundance comes from giving not from hoarding.
Father,
Forgive me for always wanting to be served.
Grow in me the desire to serve others,
To think of others more than I do.
Create in me the generosity of your character
And show me what that looks like in real time.
Amen
