Today's reading: Proverbs 11 Click here to read online (NIV)
Verse of the day: "The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself." 11:25 (KJV)
This verse reminds me of another verse from Luke 6:38: "Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."
We can find numerous other verses in the similar lines. The bottom line is 'Being generous'.
My Mom always encourages us whenever we get discouraged of giving. She says, "It is a blessing being at the giving end rather than at the receiving end." How true!
Indeed, giving is better than receiving. Even when it comes to prayer, giving praises to God is far better than always asking for one thing or another.
It may seem like no one is watching our giving or that only we are giving all the time. But remember nothing is hidden from the Lord's eyes and He will repay you for what you have given.
Let us earn to be givers and not so much of receivers! Because that's the true blessing!
