- Today is a great day to "sow" or to give!
- God has placed talents and abilities within you so that you can use them to bless others.
- In other words, God has invested in you so that you can invest in others!
- When you invest in someone else's life you help them to see something that they ordinarily would not see.
- You help to bring out the uniqueness and gifting in them.
- This verse says that if you sow generously you will reap generously.
- If you sow into other people around you at school, work, your family or neighbors you will be blessed.
- Your life will be blessed by making someone else better.
- One of the most precious things to us is our time.
- When we get a free moment we use it for ourselves ... But today I'm asking you to give it away!
- What are some ways you could give your time and talents or abilities to help others?
- 2 Corinthians 9:10 (MSG) says, "He (God) gives you something you can then give away, which grows into full-formed lives, robust in God.
- As you give away your time to help someone else and invest in someone else, God will help you to get more out of the time He has given you.
- Maybe its an encouraging word or a note.
- Maybe its spending extra time with family.
- Maybe its helping out around the house or helping a neighbor without being asked.
- Maybe its spending time just listening to someone who needs to talk.
- Maybe its giving away a free night of babysitting for someone you know.
- This week think..."How can I give?"
- 2 Cor. 9:8 says, "God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others."
- You will have plenty left over.
- Sow generously into someone's life this weekend!
- Have a great Tuesday!
