So often we are told of God's generosity and see it as God's generosity to us. Yet here you challenge us to see God's generosity as a means that we can bless others.<BR/><BR/>I know when I got an unexpected tax rebate the other week it was sufficient to buy flights for my son and I to visit my mum in Spain (she's seriously ill at the moment), pay for a new passport AND tithe. Correctly I should have written Tithe, then buy the passports and ticket with what God had given me. <BR/><BR/>I was so grateful that God had given so generously to me. But now I can see more than just His gift to me. His gift will also bless my mum and my son. Your word will challenge me to sow seed whilst I'm there. Matt and I are already planning to encourage Mum to seek God.<BR/><BR/>We need to open our eyes more to the possibility of WHO God is blessing when we are blessed. What seeds are we able to sow due to His gifts to us?Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04832272818918256539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9405828.post-1119923842555646202005-06-28T02:57:00.000+01:002005-06-28T02:57:00.000+01:00Excellent article Chris!

It is amazing how sometimes we get into wrong thinking, and only ask God for what we think is 'righteous'. If we aren't poor, we shouldn't have 'poverty thinking', nor 'poor' asking!!-Chris Negron (USA)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
