Living generously

June 26, 2020
Today's devotion is based on 2 Corinthians 9:13, "Because of the service by which you have proved yourselves, others will praise God … for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone else."

We will not defeat poverty and injustice on this earth, we can participate in letting God's kingdom come, and so we pray for wise, generous, obedient hearts. As we do the next right thing, this transforms us so that we are ready to continue to do the right thing in the future.

Please pray with me the prayer for today: Heavenly Father, creator, and sustainer of all things, seen and unseen, may I live a life of such wise generosity that, although your plan for my life may appear fuzzy to me now, it will be clear as I look back on my life in the future. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
