You Can't Out Give God!

You can’t out give God! Many years ago, my husband walked into the room and told me that during his prayer time that morning the Lord had told him to give a large sum of money (above our tithe) to our young church. Without thought, I replied that he must have been tuned into the wrong channel, and with my accounting background I began to explain why we could not afford to do that. We had three young children, mortgage, car payment, etc., etc. I’m so thankful I am married to a man who has always led our family with confidence. He wrote the check, and I submitted. The Lord used that situation to teach me He was our provider. As only He can do, we received back the EXACT amount we had given through unexpected circumstances.
Where is the Lord stretching you? It is not always finances He is asking us to give abundantly. Is He asking you to give forgiveness, kindness, time, patience, trust…...? Be encouraged! You cannot out give God.
“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.” Luke 6:38
