Giving Freely

2 Corinthians 9:7 every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: For God loveth a cheerful giver

This Christian life we have been called to live is one of total surrender. God wants us to give to Him cheerfully and not sparingly. Surrender to Him our whole life that He might be our God and we His people. He said He would withhold no good thing from us, so let us not withhold nothing from Him. Give Him everything and give it cheerfully that you might be blessed abundantly.

God doesn't force His will, word, or way on any of us. Man has the free will to make a choice as to whom he will serve. But man doesn't have the choice of how he will serve. Jesus said you are either for Him or against Him. The word of God says He will spit the lukewarm out of His mouth. God wants us to give to Him willingly and cheerfully. He wants us to give Him our all, and to give Him our everything. We must trust that God can do more with that which we have than we can. No it is not about money, God don't need our money the silver and gold is His. He wants our life and for us to be willing to give it to Him cheerfully. Give it to Him because He paid for it, give it to Him because He knows what is best for us. Give it to Him because he loves us so much that He gave His life for us.

Let us give God our whole heart and let our eyes see his marvelous works in our life. It is more blessed to give than to receive. Blessed is the man who gives his heart to God, than they which take the possessions of the world.
