The power of generosity
John 6:11 – Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.
One of the secrets of financial health is to know the power of generosity. Our investment in the Kingdom of God is not an obligation or a bargain. It is love for the Master’s cause and a feeling of gratitude for what He has done for us.
The five loaves and two fish were probably that boy’s meal. When he gave up his meal in the name of the one who could multiply it, that food satisfied his huger just like the hunger of five thousand people who were sitting that afternoon at Jesus’ feet.
We will never be more qualified than Jesus to take care of our resources. He is wiser and knows the needs of each one better. The story of the multiplication of loaves and fish shows us the power of generosity.
Ask the Lord for wisdom in the management and use of your resources.
