If you leave a big tip, but act rudely toward the waitress, are you still a generous person? Probably not. Generosity is about more than money.

• It’s about our eyes – what do you see when you see the needs of the world? Potential distractions? People that need to get a grip? The generous see opportunities to help & solve problems & serve others.
• It’s about our words – How do we talk to others? Are you generous with encouragement & praise for others? Do you give or take away with how you talk to people?
• It’s about our hands – Are we willing to serve? Are we willing to give with our energy, time, strength, etc.?
• It’s about our feet – Are you willing to go to difficult places? To step out of your comfort zone? To do things that you wouldn’t choose, to strengthen a relationship with another person?
• It’s about our motives – Do you just help people that can help you in return? Do you only serve when people are looking?

“I don’t have much money” is not an excuse for a lack of generosity. There are a multitude of ways that you can give life to others today.

“…the righteous gives and does not hold back” Proverbs 21:26 NASB.
