  • When you think of a generous person, what comes to mind? Maybe it’s donating to causes, volunteering, or spreading random acts of kindness. How does the Bible define generosity? We’re learning in this message.
    ABOUT THIS MESSAGE
    We tend to hold tightly to the things that matter most. But soon, the fear of losing them can feel like a heavy weight. What if you could trade fear for trust that God will provide More Than Enough? Let’s learn how in our new series.

      That's great you are willing to give your time. What about your finances? God wants you to tithe out of your love for him.

    This message comes at such a good time. I've been working on generosity these past weeks. I actually just started putting aside some giving money like two months ago. My goal for every month, is to spend less on myself and more on others. It's crazy how we don't think we're rich in the US. But, we have all this money for takeout, self-care, expensive phones, etc. We're so blessed. May we grow in blessing others with what we have been given!

    • @life.church

    Hey Pastor Craig and the Life Church family. This is Shaudie-Ann all the way in Jamaica 🇯🇲. My number one resolution for 2024 is to put God first in every aspect of my life, and it so happens that God connected me to your youtube channel. What a blessing 🙌 My husband and I listen to your sermons daily, and through you, God is making a huge difference in our lives. I have also introduced my family and bestie to your sermons. My sister and I have been active Christians since 2001 and have a church family that we absolutely adore but God's introduction of us to you and life church have been nothing short of a blessing.
    Thank you for such relatable and powerful messages.
    All Glory be to God!

    • @life.church
      @life.church  8 місяців тому

      Hi SC,
      Hope this will help explain. Matthew 6:19 explains that our treasure on earth will wear out, rust or break like cell phones or vehicles. Not that we don't need those things to live but to not dwell on them like they are the only things worth living for. Verse 20 goes on the say store up treasure in heaven where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Such as how we treat people, our generosity, showing Jesus' love to others. Treasure living like Jesus. We all need things in this world to live. And those things can be important. All he was trying to say was to not be so concerned with the things of this world. I hope that helps.

    • @sc4261

      Then he should have the courage to say so. God does bit provide for the elderly who cannot afford to live because they have outlived their finances. I know many who were generous givers and now they are broke.

    • @life.church
      @life.church  8 місяців тому

      Dear God, I lift up S C up to you. You know exactly what their situation is. I ask that you would be their provider. I ask for their needs to be met. God, I ask for wisdom and discernment for their financial situation. Please grant them the tools needed to face these challenges. In your name, Amen.
      That is why it is important to go to God first so he can provide. I am so sorry that there are people out there that don't have the means because of their giving. I am not trying to offend anyone either however, it makes me wonder if they were doing it because God told them to, or they did it do get the glory for themselves. Either way God has a plan for them and that is where their faith needs to be.

    I am going to FSCJ. They did things wrong. I was supposed to start 2021 so by 2023 would graduate by now. Vocational Rehab is helping me. They were quite upset. Now I only have. SSDI. It is not enough to to live on. I don't get the money from the Lawsuite until 2041.

      @life.church God I Thank you! It is hard because there are so many things I can not do. Career as Certified.Medical Coder. But I lost my certification. I can get a loan for books and study guide. But Not sure I can afford it until I am working. I guess I will keep praying and find out for sure..
