At Falling Spring, we believe generosity is a privilege. Everything belongs to God, and God is a Giver! He sent His Son to give us life and breath and freedom. To set us free from our chains, from our bondage, from what enslaved us. To deliver us out of death and into life. To give us Himself. So in response to all He’s done we say, “God I want the world to know about Jesus. All I have is Yours!”

So the prayer is that God would capture our hearts today. Awaken us to the fact that He loves us and cares for us. There’s nothing we have that He doesn’t already have a million times over. And there’s nothing we have that didn’t come from Him first. Then, we will have this great privilege and ability to respond by joining Him with our time, our energy, our gifts, our opportunities, and our money. We have this opportunity to lean into the things that last forever and sowing into what God is doing here and beyond.

All throughout the Bible, we learn that giving generously is not a chore, but a blessing! 

“The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. 7 Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
2 Corinthians 9:6-7

“Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.”
Malachi 3:10
